I have my own launch configuration type, and I really don't want configurations of that type to trigger build of the whole workspace before launching. Currently this is only controlled by "Build before launching" flag on whole workspace basis. Would be great to have that parameter in launch configuration type's configuration.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Define your own launch conf. type
2.Define a way to launch it
3. Ensure "Build before launching" flag is set
3.Observe that whole WS is build -> need a way to control that

I also can't do a temporary disabling in ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2.preLaunchCheck(), because it is done *after* checking "Build before launching" preference value. Any workaround will be much appreciated

What are you returning from ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2.buildForLaunch()?

Thanks Michael,

Accidently I've already found this solution. Once again Eclipse anticipated my needs :)
