Scala plugin for Eclipse issue [message #1733833]

So I have eclipse Mars 4.5.2 and then install the latest scala plugin. Every time I create a new workspace I get the message "Run Scala Setup Diagnostics? We detected some of your settings are not adequate for the Scala IDE plugin. Run setup diagnostics to ensure correct plugin settings?".

I do this and everything looks fine, apart from the "Content assist auto-activation delay (ms)" being set to 0. If I change it to any positive integer, e.g. 500 then it's happy. I start Eclipse again and do not have the message. However, as soon as I change workspace I get it again. What I want to do is set this once then never have to set it again - is this possible? Or any other way to get rid of the annoying prompt?

Also what is the actual issue of the delay (ms) being set to 0? When so, content assist still appears to work...

Luke,

If you enable the preference recorder (little button on the bottom left
of the preferences dialog), you should be able to record this preference
and then that preference will be applied (automatically on startup) to
all workspaces.

I don't think anyone the JDT forum can comment on what's going on with
the Scala plugins.

For recording the preferences, I do not know what you mean by this? After looking on Google I think you may be referring to Oomph? Is this correct? I think I need to install this plugin separately?

What I want to do is be able to distribute a version of Eclipse with this preference already set, will that be possible? i.e. does the preference get recorded somewhere within the Eclipse folder where the .exe is?

I would have thought there would be a simpler way like, e.g. modifying the eclipse.ini file.

I thought JDT would be appropriate as Scala requires JDT. I couldn't find a specific Scala forum - is there one you know of?
