I haven't checked the Tomcat/JBoss adapters in a long long time, but do you know if they copy files to a temp folder as well?
Is it normal that the server adapters that modify their behaviour based on the project's natures? I would have expected that the adapter simply uses whatever is in the Deployment Assembly data to determine how to deploy/structure classpaths/etc. Chuck/Roberto - are you able to provide any additional info for this? I'm using RAD 9.1.1 with the WAS 8.5 tools (but it has been tried in Luna with the WAS 8.5 tools and the same result as well) Thanks!
