I'm developing a C++ application with Eclipse CDT but sometimes I need to work with Java projects.

How do you switch between the Java and C++ eclipse environments?

You can change perspectives by accessing Window>Perspective>Open Perspective>.., however there are some buttons on the right of the toolbar for switching perspectives and a button for adding new perspective switch buttons, so you can use those to switch perspectives rapidly.

The general Eclipse shortcut for switching perspectives is:

Ctrl+F8

If you hold down Ctrl longer, you can choose to which perspective to jump.
