Eclipse is very nice in the way that starting the debugger takes one to the
debug perspective. Is there any way to tell it that when the debugger is
stopped, go back to the Java (or previous) perspective? I looked in the
preferences under Run/Debug, but it doesn

If you mean 'can I make Eclipse use the Java (or previous) perspective

Window > Preferences > Run/Debug > Perspectives
If however, you want Eclipse to automatically revert to the previous
perspective as soon as you're done debugging... I don't think so.
Perspective changes appear to be controlled by starting a behaviour
(debugging, synching), not ending one.
There's also Window > Preferences > Run/Debug > View Management, which
from the sounds of it can automatically open/close the Debug View in the
Java (or other) perspective as soon as it's needed / no longer needed.

Yes, what I would like is that when I terminate a debug session it reverts
to the Java perspective. What I find now is that I always have to go click
the "Java perspective" button. Not a big deal and I can even see that it
could be mildly annoying since sometimes you want to terminate a debug
session and simply restart. But not usually (for me, at least). I looked
at the Preferences/Run-Debug stuff. But while it controls entering when/how
to enter a debug session, there is no obvious way to tell it what to do
when debugging stops.
Thanks, Ric

In terms of a quick keyboard-based solution, you could use "CTRL-3, pj"
to switch quickly back to "*P*erspectives > *J*ava".
Note also Shift-Alt-X and Shift-Alt-D for eXecute and Debug (or CTRL-F11
and F11).
Still not what you want, I know. You might want to open an enhancement
bug for Eclipse 3.5.

There is no such feature or configuration. Implementing one would
require some critical usability questions to be answered. There was a
thread about this a while back:
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.newcomer/msg12 635.html
Hope this helps,
Eric
