JSF + XLS ?

[tomo]

Let's say I want to create new XLS file with jxl (jexcel) in some
controller. The function for this is createWorkbook(java.io.File file) , but
it works when you put let's say c:\somedir\somefile.xls, but
my problem is that this is web application, and I don't have any local
directories. Any suggestions ?

The jexcel code can only create files on disk, then you need
a directory that is writeable by your web app.
