Hi,

I'm trying to figure out it the workspace mechanic supports preference
tasks that install new plugins.  If I turn on the preference recorder,
install new software, and save the file in my ~/.eclipse/mechanic, it
contains a number of config options, but applying that preference file
on a different workspace has no effect...

The file I generated is copied below.

Cheers,
Jonathan

The workspace mechanic does not install plugins into your workspace. It only
sets up the configurations of plugins that have already been installed. I'm
not entirely sure if that's by design, or if we just haven't tried yet. Any
thoughts, anyone?

We never had that need internally, so we did not implement it. It's
certainly possible for someone to write such a task supplier, and we could
discuss including it in another release.

Seems like the two biggest requests we're getting are tasks that manage
installing plug-ins and registering task directories by URL.

If I may make a more general comment, it's really unclear what sort of
tasks are supported by the preference recording.  For example, can I
define user libraries with the preference recorder?

Any documentation here would be immensely helpful.

BTW, this is an AWESOME tool.  It is making my life a lot easier right
now.

Ask, and ye might eventually receive. I updated the preferences recorder
wiki page with a short "How it works" section which gives a very high level
overview of what the preference recorder actually does. Tell me if this
isn't sufficient, or for any typos.

Thanks for your patronage,
- Brian Chin
