Re: [eclipse-dev] Preferences and M8 -> M9 migration






Hi,
I discovered on two of my machines than I can not switch to DebugView
(Perspective) in M9. I switched back to M8. Machines are Linux and
Windows. One has previously installed Eclipse 2.1, the other has 2.1 and
3M8. Installation folders are separate and workspace folders are
separate.

Thanks,
Milosh
