Change default workspace name? [message #1823988]

Hello,

How can I change the default workpace name that appears in the Workspace Location Rule combo box in the setup wizard from ws to workspace, so that this is what appears without the need to manually change it in the wizard itself. We are currently migrating to using Oomph in our build from Buckminster and it would be nice to not have to change the current directory naming scheme.

I'm aware that, once set, the value gets written into the user's user.setup file as an attributeRule but it would be good if every user didn't have to do this when they start using the new system. Is it possible to put such an attributeRule in the project setup file (or one of the others) to achieve this as that didn't seem to work when I tried it.

You could take the choice away by using a variable like this in the project setup:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<setup:VariableTask
    xmi:version="2.0"
    xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
    xmlns:setup="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/1.0"
    name="workspace.location"
    value="${installation.location/workspace}"/>
