How should the editor know, which class a variable belongs to. Python is a
dynamically typed language. This means, that the type of an object is
determined at runtime. This is a very big difference to C++ or Java, where a
scanner can parse the source and determine the type of an object even before
the code is compiled.
I'm pretty well aware of that - but I'm talking about visiting a file
via the tabs, detecting code in it like
self.foobar()
and then one wants to visit foobar - which is located in the same file.
So syncing the classbrowser with the currently visited file is nice. No
reflection/type inference here.
Somebody recommended to make a toolbar with an entry for the search expression
and a find and find next button. The search should use the flags set last
time the search dialog was used. How about that?
The important part for me would be that it's fully Key-operated - in
emacs, I press C-s for forward search, then start typing which does
incrementally search. Pressing C-c twice makes the last search
expression appear. C-r does the same backwards.
Displaying the search term in a toolbar is ok, but the advantage of the
minibuffer-style is that it occupies precious screenspace only when needed.
And the ability to search forward/backward from the current cursor
position with possible wrap arounds instead of always beginning at the
top would also be great. Any chances for this?
That is in. Just select the backwards checkbox and select Find Again (or press
F3).
It's not about searching backward, but about searching from the cursor
position - instead of the beginnig, which is AFAIK the eric behaviour
.I'm on my mac now and haven't eric running, so I can't check that out -
but I was annoyed by that, and usually I know how to operate GUIs so I'd
seen an option that changes that behaviour - I hope at least.
