Description Jared Burns CLA 2002-11-22 15:47:20 EST 
Build 20021119

When the external tool options tab fails to access the RUN_IN_BACKGROUND
property on a launch config, it defaults to "true". This is the wrong default.
The lack of the property means that the tool predates the option to run in 
the background, thus it's current state should be interpreted as "run in 
foreground". This default is particularly troublesome for migrating tool
builders, which should never be run in the background.
Comment 1 Jared Burns CLA 2002-11-22 15:48:30 EST 
This problem was also causing "unsaved changes" to appear for migrated configs.

Please verify change in ExternalToolOptionsTab.

Comment 3 Luc Bourlier CLA 2002-11-22 16:30:22 EST
