Too many open files (2048 file handles limit)

843810Feb 4 2003 — edited Jul 9 2004
I have an java application that opens many many files. When running in windows xp it crashes at 2048 open files:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: TempTestManyFiles.2043.txt (Too many open files)

Is it a java-problem or is it a windows xp problem. And how do i change the limit?
