Oomph enables the "Build Automatically" preference when it finishes the installation [message #1706164]

I have the model configured with the following recorded preference:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<setup:PreferenceTask
    xmi:version="2.0"
    xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
    xmlns:setup="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/1.0"
    key="/instance/org.eclipse.core.resources/description.autobuilding"
    value="false"/>

During the installation and when it's already performing the final build, the "Build automatically" preference is disabled. But after the installation finishes, the preference is enabled automatically, ignoring the recorded preference.

Is this the expected behavior of Oomph or might it be some wrong configuration in my model?

Silvestre,

No, it's just not something we ever took into consideration. We
remember the state up front, and restore that initial state, regardless
of what preference tasks might have done to change it. We probably need
special case handling for this particular preferences. It would likely
also be bad if a preference task enabled it during the task execution
because then builds would kick in before everything is setup and ready
for a build; that's the whole reason for disabling it in the first place.

Please open a bugzilla and we'll see how best to handle this...

Hi Ed,
ok, I see.
I though this was already handled in a special way, since IIRC this preference (at least in the past) was one of those that was suggested to be configured when we're running Oomph in simple mode (together with Enconding, etc.).
