For Windows users who are interested...
Now I have 2 separate folders :
|_web2py (containing web2py source files with default applications)
|_...
|_applications
|_admin
|_welcome
|_web2py_apps (folder containing all my apps)
|_app1
|_app2
|_...
When I upgrade web2py , I replace the whole "web2py" folder
Then I launch a little batch file stored in "web2py_apps" to recreate all
directory junctions.
Code here :
*create_junctions.bat*
for /f "delims=" %%a In ('dir /ad/b "./" ') Do mklink /J ..\web2py\
applications\%%a .\%%a
pause
