Guy, You're right. For good measure, here's the wiki page about it: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Reference/Temporary_Directories

You might like to raise a bugzilla for this, and suggest the behaviour that you would like, and that will give us developers something to focus on: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi thanks, Jan On 18 October 2011 00:31, <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi folks > > I'm using Jetty7 embedded.
