Pydev 2.1.0 Released

2011-06-01 Thread Fabio Zadrozny
Hi All,

Pydev 2.1.0 has been released

Details on Pydev: http://pydev.org
Details on its development: http://pydev.blogspot.com

Release Highlights:
---


Code Analysis

By default, only the currently opened editor will be analyzed
(resulting in much shorter build times).
Added action to force the analysis on a given folder or file.
Showing error markers for PyDev elements in the tree.
New option to remove error markers when the editor is closed (default).

Editor

Override method completions (Ctrl+Space after a 'def ') .
Completions starting with '_' now have lower priority.
Fixed major issue when replacing markers which could make errors
appear when they shouldn't appear anymore
Auto-linking on close parens is now optional (and disabled by default).

Code coverage

No longer looses the selection on a refresh.
Fixed issue where coverage was not working properly when running
with multiple processes.
Added orientation options

PyUnit

Added feature to relaunch the last launch when file changes (with
option to relaunch only errors).
setUpClass was not called when running with the pydev test runner
F12 makes the editor active even if there's a tooltip active in
the PyUnit view.
The PyUnit tooltip is now properly restoring the focus of the
previous active control.
Added orientation options

And a bunch of other bug-fixes.


Note: Java 1.4 is no longer supported (at least Java 5 is required now).



What is PyDev?
---

PyDev is a plugin that enables users to use Eclipse for Python, Jython
and IronPython development -- making Eclipse a first class Python IDE
-- It comes with many goodies such as code completion, syntax
highlighting, syntax analysis, refactor, debug and many others.


Cheers,

CodeInvestigator version 1.6.0 was released on June 1.

2011-06-01 Thread hans moleman
CodeInvestigator version 1.6.0 was released on June 1.

Changes:

- Python 3:
  Windows: Two seperate installers for Python2 and Python3.
  Mac: One installer for both.
  Linux  : No more RPM and DEB installers. Run 'python setup.py
install'.
  Required Python 2.7 or higher.

Bugs:

- stdout had additional chars in it.
- Windows users could not use the Start-button. They could only double
click on the Scripts-screen.
- Start up should be more reliable.
- Mac users now uses the PATH to work out what Python version is being
used.

Interface changes:

- Menu stays visible on the code page.
- Cursor turns into pointer when a user can click to close.
- Menu-View is removed when nothing under it exists.

CodeInvestigator is a tracing tool for Python programs.

Running a program through CodeInvestigator creates a recording.
Program flow, function calls, variable values and conditions are all
stored for every line the program executes.
The recording is then viewed with an interface consisting of the code.
The code can be clicked: A clicked variable displays its value, a
clicked loop displays its iterations.
You read code, and have at your disposal all the run time details of
that code. A computerized desk check tool and another way to learn
about your program.
