__files created by default since v3.6.0

[jkmcl]

Proposal

Directory src/test/resources/__files does not exist in my project but I notice that WireMock is creating it automatically after upgrading to version v3.6.0.

I think this should not be the default behavior.

Reproduction steps

Create a project that uses WireMock 3.6.0 but does not use any of its API that requires the existence of __files. Run some test that uses WireMock and an empty src/test/resources/__files will be created.

References

It seems that this undesired behavior is introduced by commit 3be4a18.

Same here. Until this is fixed, I am using the following work-around on a Gradle project. This effectively disables using file-based stubs as it tries to source them from the temporary build folder, but that's fine for my use case.

val wireMockServer = WireMockServer(options().port(0).usingFilesUnderDirectory("build"))
