Vlad,

you can override the default working directoy of the FileSettingStore.
If you specify the FileSettingStore#FILE_SETTING_STORE_DIR init
parameter in your web.xml, it should use the directory given there.

Thanks Rüdiger, this is helpful.

However I am still wondering, is this behavior normal ? Who deletes that folder, RAP or JBoss ?

Most likely JBoss. We use Tomcat, but it similarly deletes it's working directory when redeploying apps.

Vlad,

in short, it is JBoss who deletes the files. The default location for
the setting store is derived from the javax.servlet.context.tempdir
attribute of the servlet context.
This directory is controlled by the servlet engine (in your case the one
that comes with JBoss). We choose this as the default because we can be
sure to have write access to it.
See also the JavaDoc for RWTFileSettingStoreFactory.
