Recently installed Mars.2 on Windows 10. This is the first time I have run Mars.2 and the first time I have run Windows 10 so not sure which of these might be the culprit. No longer will eclipse switch perspectives when launching a debug configuration. Has worked fine up until now but machine has been rebuilt with a fresh install of Windows 10. This happens for two different installs, one with PHP development and one with Java development. Perhaps a bug or perhaps a configuration different with Mars.2 that I need to change. Have already checked Run/Debug Perspectives setting and it is configured to prompt for perspective change. -- Configuration Details -- Product: Eclipse 4.5.2.20160218-0600 (org.eclipse.epp.package.reporting.product) Installed Features: org.eclipse.platform 4.5.2.v20160212-1500
Could you verify that the setting for your PHP and Java app launchers are set appropriately? Note that Eclipse by default only switches perspectives with Java for 'Debug As', and not 'Run As'. Could you try with a fresh workspace?
Sorry my bad. Didn't realise with the fresh install that the default setting was "Never" switch; I think historically it was "Prompt". And then when I checked the settings, I must have been looking at the setting for opening the perspective on application suspends not application launches. The default action for suspend is "Prompt". Sorry for wasting your time.
