All execute activities that transfer files to and from FEWS should be java activities that don't use a custom jre and check the System.getProperties().get(file) before they fall back to read/write the file on disk. Only XML and NetCDF3 files can be transferred in memory. For NetCDF files the System.getProperties().get(file) contains a chunked byte array (byte[][]). An empty byte[][] array is set to tell an execute activity to save the nc file to memory as chunked byte array. The diagnostic file is also transferred in memory. Execute activities should always fall back on the files on disk when the System.getProperties().get(file) == null
Adapters that consistently use the Delf-PI.jar classes for I/O of XML data, configuration and diagnostics do not need to be modified to specifically make use of this feature, as the switching between in-memory or on-disk file transfers will be handled by Delf-PI.jar automatically. The feature has also been implemented for NetCDF files in NetCdfUtils.jar but this is considered experimental and requires further testing before using it in production.
