If you develop a java project and a c++ project (cdt) in paralell you will have different perspectives, respectively java and c++. When changing the project tree in package explorer from java to c++ project or the other way round the perspective is not changed also to the corresponding language. You have to change the perspective manually, but it should be saved depending to the project.
I'm not sure I follow. What action are you suggesting should change the active perspective?

Marking as WORKSFORME until more information is supplied.
Because the perspective feature in eclipse has for default nothing todo with the used programm language (java or c,c++(cdt) ) the easiest way would be to have reminded the last perspective used on a project. If you have several projects opened, for example one in java another in c++, eclipse should save the perspective for the current project and changing to the other project restore the formerly saved one here. The event( save perspective for current project/restore perspective for just now selected project) event can be triggered by changing source code file tab, depending in which project the ne selected file is hosted. Then if using c++ perspectives for project will be restored if changing from java code to c++ code.
I'm still not sure what you're asking for exactly. Passing onto Nick.
If I understand Terence correctly, he wants the current perspective to change depending on the preferred perspective of the current project (i.e. project containing file being edited, or resource selected in Package Explorer or Navigator view). If done right, this kind of automatic mode switching could help the user, but it could also be very disruptive. E.g. if I'm in the Debug perspective, I probably don't want it to switch back to Java perspective when I open a Java file from the Debug view.
Yep, that is what i meant. Why should someone change from Debugging in a Project change to another project? However this could be a solution for this problem. The save/restore could could look like this. On project change event: if (just now selected Project!=currentProject) { If (current project mode!= Debug Mode) {save perspective} If (just now selected Project mode!= Debug Mode) {restore perspective} } It would also be possible to have two user perspectives auto backuped for every project (normal mode and debug mode), such depending on the project mode the corresponding last saved perspective for this mode will be restored. Of course this auto save restore perspective feature shall be optional as config switch. But when developing in two different languages (java & c++) in two or more projects, (java<>jnic++ - whatever) is is quite useful not to have change from c++ two java perspective and vice versa during code editing.
This is an enhancement request, and is not Linux-specific.

It's not really hardware-specific either.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
