------------------------------------

    Release Notes Docs Status: Documented as Resolved Issue  (was: Not Yet Documented)
                       Writer: mmurray
           Release Notes Text: Application server directory trees were expected to have a certain structure, which was relied upon for the tooling to recognize and create new application servers. As highlighted by <ulink url="https://issues.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-13537">JBIDE-13537</ulink>, new releases of application servers do not necessarily conform to the expected directory structure. Consequently, these application servers would not be recognized by the tooling and would require patches to rectify the issues. To make recognition more reliable for future releases of application severs, the recognition methods have been modified to recognize a wider range of possible directory structures, under the provision that the directory structure does not deviate too far from the currently known structures.  (was: Cause: The current codebase could not work against unreleased and untested application servers based on EAP. 

Consequence: A future application server may not be recognized by our tools, making a patch release the only way users could use a new application server. 

Fix:  The fix included Creating recognizers that would most likely work against properly structured application servers of the future. 

Result: A future application server will most likely be recognized by our tools, so long as it conforms to currently known structures without deviating too far. )

> To be sure future AS7/EAP 6 based servers such as SOA-P 6 can be detected and started as an EAP 6  we need to provide a fallback for this instead of the currrent hardcoding of eap slots.
