[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-3073) Servers are created with hardcoded paths instead of relative to the runtime

[Rob Stryker (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-3073?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12437093#action_12437093 ] 

Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-3073:
------------------------------------

The server has those other paths in case your runtime is in /apps/jboss4.2  and your deploy directory is in /home/max/deployments.  One of the two paths listed in the editor is the ultimate deploy folder, the other is the temporary deploy folder.  The temporary deploy folder should be used so that the final "move" from temporary location to final location occurs from two paths on the same file system.  

Since your deploy folder can be anywhere, even if its not underneath your app server / runtime, then the temporary folder must also be global.  These paths should be global since its possible that even after moving a runtime, you want your deploy folder and your temporary deploy folder to remain the same.

> We cannot do another release where the servers are created with hardcoded full paths instead of relative to the runtime.
> If we interpret the directories as relative (i.e. new File(runtime.getDir(), server.getDir())) then it will even be fully backwards compatible (at least on windows)
