Description Fredrik Berg Kjolstad CLA 2010-11-12 18:12:30 EST 
When I launch a Parallel Application Configuration PTP automatically switches to the Parallel Runtime perspective.  Often when coding one just wants to see whether tests passes or the final output and not be pulled away from the source code.  It would therefore be useful to be shown a menu similar to when one first starts a debug session asking whether I want to move to the debug perspective, with the option of having it always perform the action I choose.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a Parallel Application Configuration
2. Start the Resource Manager
3. Open up the C/C++ perspective
4. Launch the Parallel Application Configuration

Go to Preferences>Run/Debug>Perspectives. This allows you to change perspective switcher behavior for each launch type.
