Just updated to the new Eclipse Juno, and along with that pyDev. The problem I believe is when running pyDev it does not parse the entire app directory when the files are local to the project. It is presuming you have done the imports for the file you're working on.
I looked around and gave this a shot. - Get a clean install of web2py and stash it somewhere no where near your actual active web2py structure you're working on. - Go into Eclipse Preferences -> PyDev -> Editor -> Auto Imports - Turn of Do auto import? - Turn off Do auto import or organize imports - Go to Interpretor - Python - Add a new folder to your libraries. Make sure the folder you choose is not the top most folder, but one level down. For example when I unzip I get /web2py/web2py/web2pyfiles. What you want to choose is web2py/web2py/. Anything else I don't get it has trouble finding the right __init__.py files. - With this I get code code completion with every variable: request/response/db/auth etc. Hope this helps!
