Experiences with PyDev and Eclipse 3.3

Fabio Zadrozny, the maintainer of PyDev, python plug-in for Eclipse has announced the release of PyDev 1.3.4 and talks about his experience with trying PyDev with Eclipse 3.3.

The new release comes with major changes on the debugger--bug fixes, major refactorings in its structure, and more, and it works well with Eclipse 3.3, says Zadrozny.

He says there are a few news things to learn: for instance, with the startup.jar now gone, you have to use eclipse.exe instead of java -jar startup.jar, if you do headless builds.

The "weirdest thing" for Zadrozny was that Ctrl + F11 does not always rerun the last run, rather it tries to find a configuration or some such. As he does a lot of unit tests and usually does a F9 in PyDev to run the current editor and then Ctrl F11 to re-run it again, Zadrozny says he prefers the old method. He was however able to change that in the preferences.

All in all the experience was pretty nice, says Zadrozny. "I've been able to build it without any code-changes, so, it seems pretty backward-compatible (but that's something that only time will tell)," he concludes.
