[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-21674) Enable hierarchical view by default in Project Explorer

[Mickael Istria (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-21674?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13162137#comment-13162137 ] 

Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-21674:
----------------------------------------

That's right, changing the activeByDefault and some other default values in the pom.xml of org.eclipse.ui.navigator.resources seems to be the simplest approach. However, this would als affect Eclipse IDE for all users, and we prefer avoiding such changes until the users seem to want it. Indeed, people have their habits, but the main reason IMO is that the NestedProjectContentProvider consume resources, that may not be suitable in some case.
So at the moment, any solution that involves changing the default behavior inside the plugin directly is currently "too intrusive" to be changed directly in the Eclipse IDE now.

> Project Explorer has been supporting hierarchical view of projects since Mars, but this is not enabled by default in Eclipse (core) even though this is a valuable features, especially for Maven projects that include modules (ie, sub-projects).
> After discussing about it with [~mickael_istria] and [~nickboldt], we should see if we can enable this setting by default in DevStudio.
