I don't see any reason why this filed is static. It is private and there are setter and getter for it which are not static. Fixed with commit aa1864dcadd1df90707165764adeb6c4c1435054. Keep lastPreferenceId in the session store instead of static field. Changes pushed with commit 64b9832d2169b60cc4a82d94d65bd184486469fb. |
Created attachment 223913 [details] Application to reproduce the bug When one user opens a WorkbenchPreferenceDialog, selects a preference node and closes the dialog, all other users after then get this particular node initial selected and not the one that was selected when they left the dialog the last time. The reason seems to be that the last selected node is not stored into the user session but into the static variable org.eclipse.jface.preference.PreferenceDialog.lastPreferenceId. I attached an example application to this post. Simply open the preferences with File->Preferences, select a node and close the dialog. Any other user from now on would get this node as initial selection.
