file system deployment target implementation

[salbanese]

I found that the default deployment target is hard coded into the AVMDeploySnapshotAction, so even though the deployment receiver is capable of distinguishing between several deployment targets, this feature is not actually being used.

I assume this is a bit of functionality that will eventually be implemented, and I'm  curious if anyone knows what the plan for this feature is.  This would be exceptionally useful, especially for setting up different stacks of deployment runnables for different targets.

Thanks for any info!

Never fear!!!

This was the case with 2.1.1E and earlier releases.  With our upcoming 2.2 Enterprise this December, this restriction (along with numerous others!) has been lifted.

For details on the very significant deployment enhancements (we think they'll be a sleeper hit) in our upcoming 2.2, please refer to our wiki:  http://wiki.alfresco.com/New_Deployment_Requirements.

Cheers!  This stuff is 80% complete and available for checkout for enterprise subscription customers on the V2.2 branch.  I am really psyched about these upcoming changes.
