There is also the question whether DeploymentManager.loadProfile(ProfileKey key) is still valid when having more active profiles. Maybe we just want to point that to the default hot-deployment profile in future? Otherwise it might be confusing where the file is actually copied to. Although this would not make it possible to copy something into the deployers folder (where the question remains if there would be still a deployers folder when we have a xml based configuration) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4205883#...
