[Python] Code Completeion - It's finally here!

[jacensolo]

I gave up looking for an IDE with code completion for python, but today I found it on stumbleupon. http://www.netbeans.org/features/python/index.html

I don't know how new this is, but I looked at netbeans a couple of months ago (I think) and I faintly recall being disappointed.

I haven't used it, but it also seems to support Jython. I might be swinging soon.

What exactly is code completion? is it where you type like
variable. and it show's you things you can do with that variable.

Simple example, but it also works with imported libraries to:

Class Num:
def add(x, y):
return x + y

n = Num()
n.[add (and its arguments) will show up here to be clicked on or to be viewed]

This has been done as the "Source Assistant" on WingIDE for about 2-3 years now.

And I daresay better...

And this has been a long time (since the beginning?) in SPE, Stani's Python Editor.

That cost $35. Whicg is fine, probably worth it, unless you are just doing some hobby coding.

This was just a fyi for everyone.

This has been available as a Netbeans plugin for a few months (nbm file). It has now been pulled into the 6.5 release.

Pydev is an Eclipse plug-in for Python development, I have been quite happy with it.

Swinging from what? ;-) Python + GTK makes more sense if you plan on using Python.

Actually the Source Asst. is on the professional version which is $179.00. Unless you're working on an Open Source project, in which case they give you a license gratis.

True, but I have a natural aversion to using tools designed for Java then shoehorned into other applications. Hard to get the smell out. ;) 'sides, your topic felt like you were unaware that Python code completion was available elsewhere for a while now.

Swinging from wxPython to Swing :p.

Though, having looked at swing, I don't like it.

also in komodo, it's what I'm using now.
