Eclipse with PyDev

[TheBoneIII]

Okay, so I'm a bit of a programming endeavorer. I downloaded Eclipse (an IDE) and PyDev (a python program that works with Eclipse). To configure both, www.nerdparadise.com says:

"In the help menu, select "Software Updates" and "Find and Install". Click the "Search for new features to install" option. Click next. Add a new remote site. Call it PyDev and give the URL that is given on pydev's website which should be "http://pydev.sourceforge.net/updates/". Press Okidokey and Click next. Check the PyDev box. Click Next. Press 'accept'. Click Next. Click Finish. Wait. Click Install All. Click Yes. Wait. Press OK for the workspace again. Go to Window → Preferences. Under the PyDev node, go to "Interpreter - Python". Click the "New..." button. Navigate to where you installed Python and select python.exe. Press OK. Press OK. Wait. Go to File → New → Project. Select PyDev → PyDev Project. Click Next. Type CubeQuest for the project name. Click the Python version that most resembles the version you installed. Click Finish."

The bolded part is arising confusion. When I try to click the PyDev checkbox, it reads an error message:

"Pydev Mylyn Integration (0.3.0) requires plug-in "org.eclipse.mylyn(2.0.0.v20070627-1400)", or later version."

Does anyone know where I can find this plugin and how to configure it?

Re: Eclipse with PyDev

If you can't even get the programs to run, I don't feel like you're going to have much luck on the whole "endeavor".

Regardless, make sure all of the software you get is the most recently updated, because that message indicates that the version you're trying to intergrate is out of date. I don't know the programs specifically, so I can't help you with specifics.

I'd rather just accept the answer "You're screwed".

Whatever, I'll code in Notepad, even though it is a pain in the ass.

In the dialog that says 'Select the features to install' (if you are updating from the pydev update site, then below you should see pydev listed, with a checkbox next to it):

Expand the pydev item by clicking on the triangle to the left of it - uncheck the Pydev Optional Extras (Pydev Mylyn Integration and Pydev Mylar Integration), and just install the rest.

Re: Eclipse with PyDev

This has to be the greatest monument to irony I have ever seen. A noob bumps a fairly old thread in a manner I would normally bark at him for... but he solved my problem.

So... thanks... read the stickies?

Re: Eclipse with PyDev

Re: Eclipse with PyDev

yeah a 4 day old thread bump is nothing lmao

at most it should be about 2 weeks (and if that it'd have to be a pretty worthless thread that was bumped)

Re: Eclipse with PyDev

And regardless, bumping a thread with *bump* is problematic. Bumping a thread with *LoL ur dumb* is problematic.

Bumping a thread where someone was asking for help, to provide the help when nobody else has? That's just being helpful.

What part of that entire post was "smart"? I thanked you, and sorry if I accused you of a bump.

So thank you, and read the stickies. Seriously.

Re: Eclipse with PyDev

The part of it was that you getting smart was "Oh isn't it ironic how I would yell at this guy, but he solved my problem so I won't"

Nothing in the stickies says he shouldn't have posted being helpful. I suspect a "Thanks" would have been more appreciated than a "Oh what irony" thus his negative reaction.
