[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-13208) Allow custom 'standalone' mode directory in AS7 server plugin

[Max Rydahl Andersen (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13208?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Max Rydahl Andersen updated JBIDE-13208:
----------------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 4.1.x
                   4.0.x
         Priority: Blocker  (was: Major)
           Labels: f2f2012  (was: as7 directory eap6 standalone)


+100, not sure why its hardwired to standalone directory. That is for sure a bug/missing feature.

Will also be relevant for layered products to be able to change this so should definitely be enabled.

> As with JBoss EAP5.x, I have the habit of working in a copy of a 'profile' directory. With JBoss AS7/EAP6 I therefore work in copies of 'standalone' and 'domain' (depending on the operational mode). When I start AS/EAP, I reference the correct server directory with the 'jboss.server.base.dir' or 'jboss.domain.base.dir' system property. This allows me, among other things, to run multiple AS/EAP instances from a single JBoss AS/EAP installation.
> It seems that the JBDS AS7 plugin only allows me to reference the default 'standalone' directory. I'm not able to select a different directory in the 'JBoss Runtime' configuration screen. I would propose to add the possibility to start a JBoss AS7/EAP6 instance from a different directory than 'standalone'.
