• Size of views

  • Is persisted when the same workspace is used but in can’t be shared using user or common levels

• Last opened perspective or saved perspectives

  • Is persisted when the same workspace is used but in can’t be shared using user or common levels

• Working Sets

  • Are persisted when the same workspace is used but in can’t be shared using user or common levels

• Secure storage information

  • This is preserved in $HOME/.eclipse/org.eclipse.equinox.security and is not handled by DVT

• Proxy settings (Preferences -> General -> Network Connections)

  • This is preserved in $HOME/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform* directories and is not handled by DVT

• User installed plugins in a shared installation

• Settings used by other plugins that are not stored using the workspace preferences engine

  • These settings can be stored anywhere so is not possible to handle them
