Evaluation of dynamic filters [message #1841780]

According to https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Oomph_Authoring#Conditional_Tasks filters can use variables.

Trying to extend on the keystore setup I wanted to make this part optional.
That's done by introducing a BOOLEAN variable "useroption.keystore.configure" and filteers on the respective CompoundTask holding the confguration variables (keystore location/password) and the CompoundTask holding the EclipseIni tasks.
Means if the Keystore configuration is not activated there will be no corresponf
After having had help solving some issues (in https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1108073/) in facing one quirk.

The setup is Win10 + Oomph 1.21.0 Build 5122 + " -vmargs -Duser.home=Z:\sandbox\USER-HOME -Doomph.setup.user.home.redirect=true" and "USER-HOME" is deleted after stopping the installer.
(the arguments are taken from https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1098807/)

Steps to reproduce:

Clean sandbox directory
Load setup file
Select "Configure keystore" option
Options for keystore appear (and would disappear on unselect)
Next
eclipse.ini settings do not appear on confirmation screen
restart eclipse installer (without cleaning sandbox)
Now the eclipse.ini settings appear (and can be enabled/disabled dynamically via the "Configure keystore" option)

Wondering why a restart of the eclipse installer is needed for the correct (or at least expected) behaviour and if there is a way I can fix my setup file.

Variables screens:
index.php/fa/40556/0/

Confirmation screen (configuration selected without restart):
index.php/fa/40558/0/

Confirmation screen (configuration with restart):
index.php/fa/40559/0/

It just works for me, both in the debug launch from my Oomph development workspace and launching from the command line with the 2021-06 M3 installer:

https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/2021-06/m3

I see it creates the fake user home folder and that the task are present on not depending on the check box both initially and the next time...

Deleting and freshly installing the Eclipse Installer seems to have solved the issue.
Previously I was using the same version but that one has been continously updated from older version.
Sorry I missed to check that in advance with a clean install..

Thanks for helping out, Ed.
