[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-11297) AS7 ability to add deployment folders on separate file systems

[Rob Stryker (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11297?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12690289#comment-12690289 ] 

Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-11297:
-------------------------------------

The properties file that was being used to store this information has been deprecated (actually just removed since it was never in wide usage). 

A scanner's name is determined by taking the list of current scanners and finding the first scanner name beginning with the prefix JBossToolsScanner and ending with a number which is unused. Therefore given scanners "Hello", "Hello6", "JBossToolsScanner6", "JBossToolsScanner1",  the name of the newly added scanner will be JBossToolsScanner2.  

The list of currently used scanners, no longer stored in a properties file, is now retrieved directly from the server. So the server tells us what scanners are added.  If this workspace, or even this server-view server instance, requires a certain setup, it will be put that way.

For example if you have two servers using the same runtime, and server1 has a deploy folder of ~/tmp/one   while scanner2 has a folder of ~/tmp/two,  the following will occur:

1) Start server1,  
1a)  ~/tmp/one is added to the scanner list
2) Stop server1.
3) Start server2
3a) ~/tmp/one is removed from the scanner list
3b) ~/tmp/two is added to the scanner list.

> Servers earlier than as7 have a management task which can be called to add an arbitrary folder as one that the deployment scanner should scan. Ensure that jbosstools can make use of this for as7.
