  • Method Details

    • setOptionsDoctypePrefix

      @Deprecated void setOptionsDoctypePrefix(String optionsDoctypePrefix)
      Deprecated.

      WARNING: THE USE OF THIS METHOD IS DISCOURAGED AND DEPRECATED

      All plugins initially share a common settings namespace. So that would mean that a plugin could read values set by other plugins or it could register to receive value changed events for certain option keys set by other plugins (which may sometimes be useful). But this also means that accidentally a plugin could also overwrite the value for a certain key if more than one plugin use the same key. So ideally your plugin's persisted keys would all be manually prefixed with some unique ID when they are defined. This would be the recommended way of doing things. If you still want to use the method:

      Using this method when working with the singleton access to the workspace "PluginWorkspaceProvider.getPluginWorkspace().getOptionsStorage()" will set it for all plugins. So a plugin will globally influence the global prefixes for keys loaded and saved also by other plugins. Which is never a good thing.

      But using this method on the WorkspaceAccessPluginExtension.applicationStarted will only set the prefix for your plugin. So as long as your plugin will keep using the "WSOptionsStorage" received on the applicationStarted callback you will not influence other plugins.

      Sets the options doctype prefix which is used to prefix options like a namespace.
      Parameters:
      optionsDoctypePrefix - The document type prefix used to build the options keys. This should not be null.
