Re: [pde-dev] PDE Released - New Java Search Preference

[Curtis Windatt <Curtis_Windatt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't think it should be on by default. It is not bad performance wise (there is a hit if the external libraries project has to be created), but it typically adds a LOT more entries to the search. Looking up something generic like SWTUtils becomes far more difficult. Certainly some users find it helpful, but I don't think it is beneficial enough to put on by default.

Just my 2 cents.

In tomorrow's IBuild, there is a new feature added in bug 175134. It will have all the bundles in your target platform automatically added to the java search scope. If you change target platforms the java search scope will be updated. To turn this option on, use the new setting at the bottom of the general PDE preference page.

Shouldn't we have this on by default?
