When undeploying from one of the Deploy types selected:
<Custom Location>
<Externally Launched>
The undeploy function DELETES the assigned <Custom Location> and everything underneath.
For example if you’re deploying to a test server and <Custom Location> has been assigned to: C:\jboss\test\deploy\
After undeploying it will remove everything under C:\jboss\test\deploy\ including the deploy folder itself. So if you had other apps deployed on a test server, sayunara.
Try not to use this function and just “drag and drop” from the file system instead.
Just imagine if someone was deploying to the “C:\” drive. It could happen.

Can someone from MyEclipseIDE investigate this and see if there is a smarter way to do this? It is very dangerous to someone who does not know what they’re doing or is using this function for the first time.
