[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-19697) org.jboss.tools.runtime.ui.prefs mysteriously appears in Eclipse dir during JBDS BYOE installation

Martin Malina commented on JBIDE-19697:
---------------------------------------
[~mickael_istria], there are two things:
1. My ~/.eclipse does not contain this particular prefs file
(org.jboss.tools.runtime.ui.prefs), so it would have to be some metadata saying it needs
to be copied from somewhere else
2. "that has Oomph enabled" - didn't I disable it by unchecking
"Enabled" for Preference Recorder? Because I couldn't find any other
preference to disable Oomph.
...
OK, now I deleted ~/.eclipse and started a new instance of Eclipse Mars M6 and now the
runtimePaths property (from the screenshot above) is gone. So it seems it was really
stored in ~/.eclipse (but not the prefs file itself).
And once I installed JBoss Tools, the preferences file (org.jboss.tools.runtime.ui.prefs)
is still not present inside my running eclipse instance.
So it all seems to make sense except the one thing - 2. - don't you agree that
unchecking "Enabled" should disable this functionality?
org.jboss.tools.runtime.ui.prefs mysteriously appears in Eclipse dir
during JBDS BYOE installation

Key: JBIDE-19697
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-19697
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: runtime-detection
Affects Versions: 4.3.0.Alpha2
Reporter: Martin Malina
Assignee: Snjezana Peco
Attachments: preference-recorder.png
When I install JBDs 9.0.0.Alpha2 B24 BYOE into new Eclipse Mars M6 and new workspace,
during the installation, suddenly the runtime detection config appears inside my Eclipse
isntall dir:
{code}
$ find Eclipse-runtime-test.app/ -name 'org.jboss.tools.runtime.*.prefs'
Eclipse-runtime-test.app//Contents/Eclipse/configuration/.settings/org.jboss.tools.runtime.ui.prefs
{code}
This is inside the file:
{code}
$ find Eclipse-runtime-test.app/ -name 'org.jboss.tools.runtime.*.prefs'|xargs
cat
eclipse.preferences.version=1
runtimePaths=<?xml version\="1.0" encoding\="UTF-8"
standalone\="no"?>\n<runtimePaths version\="2">\n
<runtimePath path\="/Users/rasp/jbossqa/runtimes/jboss-eap-6.3.0"
scanOnEveryStartup\="false" timestamp\="-1">\n
<serverDefinitions>\n <serverDefinition description\=""
enabled\="true"
location\="/Users/rasp/jbossqa/runtimes/jboss-eap-6.3.0" name\="JBoss EAP
6.3" type\="EAP" version\="6.3">\n <included/>\n
</serverDefinition>\n </serverDefinitions>\n
</runtimePath>\n</runtimePaths>\n
{code}
It contains /Users/rasp/jbossqa/runtimes/jboss-eap-6.3.0 which I use regularly when
testing server tooling. But how did this happen?
I looked for the pref file before I started BYOE installation. Then a bit later, a few
minutes into the installation, I checked again and the file is there now.
Can somebody explain what's going on?
Note: This happened to me yesterday and it surprised me, but I wasn't sure if it
wasn't my mistake somehow. But Max preferred I try again, so I did. And it is
happening again now.
