Class BundleDefaultsScope
- All Implemented Interfaces:
IScopeContext
The bundle defaults are the defaults are default values which have been set either by the bundle's preference initializer or by a customization file supplied with the bundle.
Bundle default preferences are not persisted to disk.
The path for preferences defined in the bundle defaults scope hierarchy
is as follows: /bundle_defaults/<qualifier>
This class is not intended to be subclassed. This class may be instantiated.

getName
Description copied from interface:IScopeContext
Return the name of the scope that this context is associated with. Must not benull
.- Specified by:
getName
in interfaceIScopeContext
- Specified by:
getName
in classorg.eclipse.core.internal.preferences.AbstractScope
- Returns:
- the name of the scope
-
getNode
Description copied from interface:IScopeContext
Return the preferences node that contains the preferences for the given qualifier ornull
if the node cannot be determined. The given qualifier must not benull
but may be a path to a sub-node within the scope.An example of a qualifier in Eclipse 2.1 would be the plug-in identifier that the preference is associated with (e.g. the "org.eclipse.core.resources" plug-in defines the "description.autobuild" preference).
This method can be used to determine the appropriate preferences node to aid in setting key/value pairs. For instance:
new InstanceScope().getNode("org.eclipse.core.resources");
returns the preference node in the instance scope where the preferences for "org.eclipse.core.resources" are stored.- Specified by:
getNode
in interfaceIScopeContext
- Overrides:

in classorg.eclipse.core.internal.preferences.AbstractScope
- Parameters:
qualifier
- a qualifier for the preference name- Returns:
- the node containing the plug-in preferences or
null

getLocation
Description copied from interface:IScopeContext
Return a path to a location in the file-system where clients are able to write files that will have the same sharing/scope properties as preferences defined in this scope.Implementors may return
null
if the location is not known, is unavailable, or is not applicable to this scope.- Specified by:
