Not sure if it was you, but see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10587681/adding-python-interpreters-programmatically As for the project, you should do: nature = PythonNature.getPythonNature(IProject) pythonPath = nature.getPythonPathNature() pythonPath.setProjectSourcePath("/project/path1|/project/path2") You can look at those (IPythonNature and IPythonPathNature for more APIs for dealing with the project).
