We are in the process of standardizing our default Eclipse configuration (styles, settings, dictionary, formatting, run configurations, etc.) for our developers.
However, for Java compiler errors and warnings preferences, there does not seem to be any way to export/import settings. Is there another way to do this?
Click on the small triangle in the upper right corner of the problems view and select "Configure Contents". In that dialog check "Show all items" and uncheck "Use item limits" to show all warnings.
In eclipse if you right click on your Project in the Package Explorer, then go to properties -> Java Compiler -> Errors/Warnings. You can then manually change which compiler findings appear as warnings/errors/ignored etc...
Eclipse allow you to export your preferences via
File > Export > Preferences
You will see a list of exportable preferences, which contains Java Compiler Preference
, you can even choose specified preference to export.
After that, you can import the preferences into a new workspace via
File > Import > Preferences
The ideal way to share settings within the team (for use within the IDE) is to use project specific settings. The project specific settings become part of the project and go into source control repository, hence every team member gets them for free.
Most of the settings you mention in the question can be configured per project.
