Support for global configuration

[DGarry82]

Currently all cppcheclipse settings (except binaryPath) are in 'disabled' state by default. So when user creates every new Workspace, he gets clean configuration in Window->Preferences->C++->cppcheclipse->Settings panel. There's no way to set them to some alternate default state for new Workspaces, because all changes that can be made here will be immediately saved in current workspace's preferences, and you have to reconfigure'em every time 'from scratch'. It would be nice to have possibility to save their default values to configuration/.settings/com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core.prefs (just like binaryPath variable) with some buttons like e.g. 'save defaults' and 'load defaults', or (maybe even better) to add checkbox like 'load defaults for new workspaces' at main settings screen (Window->Preferences->C++->cppcheclipse)

What about the pluggin_customization.ini That's a way to global settings be populate as defaults for new workspaces

What about the pluggin_customization.ini

Could not get it working even providing global customization file via -pluginCustomization /tmp/cppcheclipse.ini:

com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/languageStandardC=c99 #IGNORED com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/binaryPath=/bin/true #IGNORED

Also any modifications made to global prefs file (<IDE_ROOT>/configuration/.settings/com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core.prefs) have no effect (except binaryPath and automaticUpdateCheck values):

automaticUpdateCheck=false #PROCESSED binaryPath=/bin/true #PROCESSED languageStandardC=c99 # IGNORED eclipse.preferences.version=1

These are my customizations inside the plugin_customization.ini file:

## Cppcheck (cppcheclipse) settings
com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/binaryPath=${eclipse_home}/../extras/cppcheck/cppcheck.exe
com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/automaticUpdateCheck=false
com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/automaticUpdateCheckInterval=monthly
com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/languageStandardC=c11
com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/languageStandardCpp=c++11
com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/useInlineSuppressions=true
com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/followSystemIncludes=true
com.googlecode.cppcheclipse.core/followUserIncludes=true

And I can setup more things here, I keep it in the same folder as the eclipse.ini file (in the root of the eclipse), and I changed the eclipse.ini with these lines:

-pluginCustomization
plugin_customization.ini

It works very reliably for me. I do not have to add any arguments to the eclipse binary, just run the binary. Check if in your case the eclipse.ini is not overriding your arguments with its own.
