    Not sure if this is a bug, feature, or something I don’t understand but this seemed like the right place…

    I recently updated to Eclipse 3.2/5.1.1 GA from 3.1/4.x. One of the first things I fell in love with was the Web 2.0 Browser.

    However, I noticed that I now have to be VERY careful about how I close Eclipse since the browser gets opened in a different window. If you close the development window first and then the browser window, the browser perspective is the default the next time you start Eclipse. All the files, etc you had open in the Development perspective are lost.

    To compound this, if you get into a situation where you have to restart Windows and have no control over app shutdown (a common situation for Windows… sigh), it seems like the main session is the first to be terminated and the the Web 2.0 window is terminated.

    It would be nice if the Web 2.0 perspective in a separate window could be treated as a sub-window of the main development perspective and as such closed prior to the main perspective. Thus preserving the development environment.

    TIA

    monroe,
    Thank you for the heads up… I just reproduced this situation and see what you mean… it’s a bit ackward. I’ll make a note of it.
