full user-based save/restore mechanism [message #448772] Mon, 01 May 2006 20:42
Eclipse UserFriend
With reference to bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=85373,
I am opening a new enhancement request for a full fledged user-based save
and restore mechanism.

I have a login-based RCP and would like to get the following effect:

1. User1 logs-in and starts the application on Machine1, his preferences
(defaults) gets downloaded from the server.
2. User1 decides to goto Machine2 so clicks on a user action "Push setting
to Server", all the user-preferences gets pushed to server.
3. User1 goes to Machine2 and starts the app, his prefs are downloaded
from the server and the application starts showing the same
windows/views/data as if he has not changed the machine.

I am able to do this with the current APIs available but requires lots of
processing: save/load preferences with preferenceservice, save/load dialog
settings for each plugin, save and restore the workbench state. The
resources are not in the picture for now.
