Hi All,

Pydev and Pydev Extensions 1.2.3 have been released

Details on Pydev Extensions: http://www.fabioz.com/pydev Details on Pydev: http://pydev.sf.net Details on its development: http://pydev.blogspot.com

Release Highlights in Pydev Extensions: -----------------------------------------------------------------

* Support for python 2.5 has been added * Some minor issues on mark occurrences when the definition for something could not be found were fixed

Release Highlights in Pydev: ----------------------------------------------

* When the user specifies an invalid interpreter, a better error report is given (previously it was only shown in the error log) * When threads die, the debugger is notified about it (so that they are removed from the stack) * Writing the preferences to the disk is now buffered * Fixed problem when debugging in jython with the statement "from xxx import *" * Fixed one issue with the indentation engine * Commenting a line does not remove a blank line in the end anymore * Added debug mode for unit-test * Added the possibility of setting the -Dpython.cachedir for running the jython shell (errors can arise in unix-based machines if jython is not able to write its cache)

Contributions o Darrell Maples: + Unit-test refactoring + Run as jython unit-test + Filter test methods to run

o Joel Hedlund + Added a support to ease adding options to Ctrl+1 in the scripting engine + Added a ctrl+1 for the case:

def m1(self, arg=None): arg |<-- Ctrl+1 shows option to do:

def m1(self, arg=None): if arg is None: arg = []

Support for python 2.5 o Added the new relative import o Added the new if expression o Added the unified try..except..finally statement o Added the with x:... statement o Indenting after the new with statement o Recognizing 'with' as a keyword in syntax highlighting

What is PyDev? ---------------------------

PyDev is a plugin that enables users to use Eclipse for Python and Jython development -- making Eclipse a first class Python IDE -- It comes with many goodies such as code completion, syntax highlighting, syntax analysis, refactor, debug and many others.

Cheers,
