[~rob.stryker], more questions:

*In the server editor, what's the difference between 'Publishing' and 'Application reload behavior'? Does one outrank the other or are they doing different things? I guess the answer is the latter but I don't understand why.

*Also, why is this ..
{quote}The "Process Terminated" polling mechanism should not be used for servers operating with a Remote System Explorer behavior.{quote}

* {quote}JBoss Server Tools provides the ability to customize default filesets added to new servers based on the application server type.{quote}
I get part of this, for example it could be a config file. But what happens to the fileset when it is add to the server? Does it get copied to a folder of the local application server? What happens to the files when the application server is remote?

* {quote}JBoss Server Tools provides the ability to customize classpath filesets based on the application server type.{quote}
What are classpath files? What are they used for? What happens after you specify the classpath filesets? Are the class files physically added somewhere? Or are we just stating class files that are available to the server?

> I am trying to distinguish which features are provided by Eclipse and which are provided by JBoss Server Tools so that I can accurately document JBoss Server Tools.
> The unique JBoss Server Tools features I have are:
> * automatic runtime detection
> * ability to download and install a JBoss runtime
> * JBoss Server Editor - lots of the panes in the overview tab are unique and * the deployment tab is completely unique
> * set a default server icon
> * set default filesets
> * set default classpath entries
> * create new server wizard also seems different for JBoss enterprise and community servers than in the wizard in Eclipse alone
> What have I missed?
