Well, it should be possible... the pydev console is actually a xml-rpc server with 'addExec', 'getCompletions', 'getDescription', 'close', so, you could extend it if you want more data from it (code is in org.python.pydev/PySrc/pydevconsole.py and in the java side org.python.pydev.debug.newconsole.PydevConsoleCommunication )
I guess all should be doable :) Cheers, Fabio On Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 12:35 PM, Davidson, Josh <josh.david...@lmco.com> wrote: > Sure.
