Where does Google App Engine/Java SDK store records and blobs?

Question

Where does the SDK for Google App Engine/Java store records and blobs?

I am specifically interested in the Windows SDK.

I would like to see and clear out data, during both manual and automated testing.

Ideally, there would also be a trimmed down version of the admin console.

by default, the java app engine sdk stores blobs in your app's WEB-INF/appengine-generated/ subdirectory and datastore records in the local_db.bin file in that directory.

you can change these by setting the datastore.backing_store and blobstore.backing_store java properties (see LocalBlobstoreService.BACKING_STORE_PROPERTY and LocalDatastoreService.BACKING_STORE_PROPERTY ).

as for trimmed down admin console, there is one , similar to the python sdk's. start the java development server and go to http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin .
