Which files will be download to local by client when Swing+BC as three tier

Question

i have read adfjclientbcwebstart.pdf . when i read page 25,there is a sentence
In contrast to the local deployment explained earlier, the three-tier deployment
only loads the ADF JClient-specific application files to the user desktop, thus
reducing the overall download size.
i notice there are three files in my application server after i deployed ADF BC as Session EJB. They are ModelEJB.jar,ModelEjbCommon.jar and ModelEjbMT.jar.
i want to know who is ADF JClient-specific application files and will be downloaded to client.
thanks a lot.

Think about the process:
Log into SharePoint as test user.
List is empty due to permissions.
Click the Export to Excel button.
??? Who's account is running Excel ???
I'm betting you are still logged into your PC as yourself, not the test user. Excel is running with your permissions when it makes the data connection back to SharePoint, not the test user's permissions.
Also, Export to Excel does not use Excel Services. It uses an HTTP request and as such uses the permissions of the caller (the local PC Excel user, or if hand typed into a browser, the SharePoint logged in user). If hand typed it would look something like
this:
http://sharepoint/sites/Training/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=109&Using=_layouts/query.iqy&List=%7B48580CAC%2D58CF%2D4C20%2D8CDE%2DD93B56699818%7D&View=%7B4242B9E9%2D665C%2D46FD%2DBADC%2D72FB8AB63ADA%7D&CacheControl=1
Of course you would have to replace the GUID with the GUID of your list and view.
There's a lot of interesting things you can do with owssvr.dll:
Quick views of the XML used in SharePoint for lists
An alternate to web service calls for client side coding (InfoPath,AJAX, Silverlight, JQuery, etc)
Sometimes better than a web service call as you can reference a list's view to get a filtered list, something would usually require a CAML query. Cmd=Display&List={listGUID}&View=viewname&XMLDATA=TRUE
