PyDev Tutorial

November 20, 2009 – 1:54 pm

I found a good tutorial on IBM on doing Python development with Eclipse. It might be a little out of date, but I think only the screens got moved around a little bit. It includes details on how to use ant, which I’ve recently started using with cruise control and PHP, so I’m becoming a fan.

I did run into an issue where I’d get the error ‘Variable references empty selection: ${project_loc}”, but a quick google brought me to a solution here.

I only had PDT installed, which doesn’t come with the Ant tools. You just need to install the Eclipse Java Development Tools. Found that tip on Stack Overflow.

Otherwise, a great tutorial on how to get working with Eclipse and Python.

  4. Learning this one is not something that you can accomplished quickly, you need to spent your time to learn PyDev, but once you learn then you are happy also to share this to your friends
