Description Andreas Sewe CLA 2015-04-16 06:03:36 EDT 
To reproduce:

- Use a fresh Eclipse install containing Eclipse Oomph, e.g., based on the Eclipse Mars M6 package for Java Developers.

- Install the latest development version of Code Recommenders for Java Developers from [1].

- Go to the Code Recommenders > Completions preference page and click on "Enable Code Recommenders code completion".

- Close the preferences.

- Oomph will now ask you whether to record this preference change. Agree.

This causes an error dialog to appear, with the following information:

An internal error occurred during: "Store preferences".
An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x0) was found in the element content:org.eclipse.jdt.ui.textProposalCategory

*sigh* Apparently, I cannot copy and paste the full error message into Bugzilla, as it contains '\0' characters itself.

Bug 464777 contains the full details. (AFAICT, this is really a bug in Oomph, not Code Recommenders.)

I can confirm that, with the latest version of Oomph (1.1.0 build 1119), this doesn't occur anymore. Thanks, Eike.
