I see something has changed on the Preferences side. In my RCP app I
have code like:

Preferences pref = ProvSDKUIActivator.getDefault()
.getPluginPreferences();
// See if automatic search is enabled at all
if (pref.getBoolean(PreferenceConstants.PREF_AUTO_UPDATE_ENABLE D) ==
false) {
pref.setValue(PreferenceConstants.PREF_AUTO_UPDATE_ENABLED, true);

}
pref.setValue(PreferenceConstants.PREF_UPDATE_ON_STARTUP, true);
pref.setValue(PreferenceConstants.PREF_DOWNLOAD_ONLY, true);

How would I do this with 3.5 ?

Regards Thomas

The preferences for auto-update moved from the bundle
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk to org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk.scheduler.

In M6, you need to ensure your app uses the scheduler bundle, not
ProvSDKUIActivator, and use the constants and prefs from its activator.

As of today (and in the 20090414 I-build), the prefs have changed scope
from the instance scope to the p2 profile. See
AutomaticUpdatePlugin.getPreferences() for how that is done.

If you are worried about following the migration of these preferences in
your app, take a look at PreferenceInitializer.migratePreferences() in
the scheduler bundle.

What exactly do I have to change here ?

Will there be working code like
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.equinox /p2/examples/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.examples.rcp.prestartupd ate/src/org/eclipse/equinox/p2/examples/rcp/prestartupdate/P 2Util.java?root=RT_Project&view=markup
based on 3.5 code ?

That would be what I need.

Preferences pref =
AutomaticUpdatePlugin().getDefault().getPreferenceStore();

Get the prefs from AutomaticUpdatePlugin() instead of ProvSDKUIActivator.

Then use the PreferenceConstants defined in that bundle
(org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk.scheduler) instead of PreferenceConstants
in the other bundle.
