Pydev extension now open source
Filed Under (Editors) by Marcin Kuźmiński on September-6-2009

The creator of PyDev together with aptana released the version 1.5 of PyDev.This major release contains PyDev along with previously commercial non free PyDev extensions.
This is from now a Open Source project you could find on sourceforge
Pydev Extensions is a plugin that adds many other features to Pydev such as…

* code-analysis
* code completion with auto-import
* better implementation of go to definition
* remote debugging
* ‘quick-fixes’
* mark-occurrences <- this one is great :)

Before the PyDev extension was a paid plugin for aptana or eclipse.Now you could download it as PyDev 1.5 which is pyDev + pyDev extension merged together as a free open source project.
Great to here that :)

In order to install the pyDev 1.5 just update your eclipse repository to new update address which is http://pydev.org/updates

I think the nightly builds are yet not in 1.5 so I’ll use this repo for now.

Also i found a great link for PyDev functionality.

http://pydev.org/manual_adv_features.html

i did not know eclipse provide the ctrl+/ functionality (text auto completion emacs style…) This one is very handy !!

Enjoy new even better pyDev
