What bugs me for a while:There is a instance, a configuration and a default scope. Why is there no *user scope* which stores preferences like spell checker enablement in the user’s home folder instead into the workspace or eclipse installation folder?
Saving some preferences in user scope instead of the workspace scope will certainly require some changes to the existing UI. But it seems legit to ask why it’s not there...
Hi
Nearly every tool has asked questions but they steadily vanish
into the Custom rather than Standard optiion in the Installer. But
options such as 'Desktop Icon' often persust in a final installer
page. Even the Java SDK installer stops half way through for an
extra irritating confusing question about the JRE location. Open
Office has confusing/scary questions about user identity/initials.
Prior to OOMPH, Eclipse has no installer so no location for these
defaults/variations. The workspace location dialog is the first
place for an option. Perhaps this dialog could offer
customizatiion.

Ed Willink

Does anyone know of a commercial IDE that would ask questions
like this at install time? I can’t remember any but I have only
installed the big ones, Visual Studio and Xcode.
Thanks,

I did not agree to
anything. Someone asked whether there are at all
negative points when enabling spell-checking and that's
what I provided. I like the Oomph questionnaire based
approach.

Looks like Dani agrees, so JDT can
change its default and the EPP
would not need to change.
