[IPython-dev] traits/tvtk objects and completion

[Arnd Baecker]

Hi,

the attached example shows some weirdness
with traits/tvtk objects in that
TAB completion does not work for objects
defined in an embedded shell.

I know, there is quite some magic
going on with the embedding, so this
might be a difficult one...

Best, Arnd

# ----- tab_completion_tst.py
from enthought.tvtk import tvtk

from IPython.Shell import IPShellEmbed
ipshell = IPShellEmbed()

cone = tvtk.ConeSource()

print "At the prompt do:"
print "c = cone"
print "then try"
print "  cone.<TAB>"
print "vs."
print "  c.<TAB>"
print "note: `c==cone` gives True"

ipshell()
