<p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p>
<p>Tools does not need to know about different structure, configuration nor deployment descriptors to deploy.</p>
<p>They just need to know about the destination directory - nothing else.</p>

<p>The option were off by default to provide the safer "API" by default and option existed to let existing tools work with AS7...(those that works/worked with AS 3,4,5 & 6.</p>

<p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p>
<p>you mean if the file is not properly zipped ? will you keep doing that on every rescan until it becomes complete ?</p>
<p>can you detect these partial copied zips without locking the file ? </p>
<p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p>
<p>the flag were there to have good balance between implicit and explicit control.</p>
