If I stop a testcase in my IDE while running it, then the next time I try to run it I get a 'blah.jar is already deployed error'. In embedded that can possibly be avoided by setting an alternative path for standalone.xml and the output folder. I think Thomas might have done something to handle that in the stuff I took over, but I have been concentrating on getting the core functionality working. > > One thing I wanted to ask was to maybe keep a standalone.xml.original which is never changed? +100 (even though not just having standalone.xml.original won't cut it since you might have done edits for it since..) This behavior about actually changing the state of the XML while running is kinda annoying in some cases ;) I really would prefer if there was something like: standalone.xml + standalone-delta1.xml + standalone-delta2.xml or similar so one could see what actually are *my* input and what is done by editing/adding in a console or deployments. I know that is not trivial but then at least someway of doing includes to model something like: standalone.xml include deployments.xml ...or somehow intelligently (i.e. don't create a revision unless it really has changed) keep a "revision history" around of the files when its updated.
