I might not be able to offer anything constructive other than a summary
of my experiences. I was using Eclipse as part of Altera's NIOS SDK.
1. I did not have your problem of having to kill the debug perspective
to re-build the target.
2. I don't think I ever tried to pause!
3. To restart, IIRC I simply downloaded again.
However, IMHO, Eclipse is an absolute POS. If I wasn't forced to use it
as part of the SDK then I wouldn't touch it with a 10-ft clown pole.
I got so fed up trying to control the debugger I reverted to using
printf's, except where using the debugger was absolutely necessary. I
didn't even use the editor - it was *painfully* slow on a 3.2GHz
machine!!! At the end of it all, I used Eclipse to click on 'build' and
'download' and that's about it. And then I washed my hands - thoroughly!
