Description erdincyilmazel 2008-11-15 20:27:24 UTC

Using the following python path netbeans does not seam to find the right packages and modules. This makes the auto
completion feature useless since netbeans lists hundreds of different names after pressing CTRL + Space. Using the same
source file with the same python path in PyDev (Eclipse extension) works as expected. I am going to attach screenshots
for both ides.

The default python path the netbeans detected was different from the one below. It was not working so I changed it to
align with the path that pydev uses. (I have two python installations, the one that comes with MacOS leopard and python
2.5.2 which I installed)

Jumping to the source file using Command clicking on a name also jumps to wrong file.

Python path:

Completion is being reworked for the new release planed in August. Not sure it is still relevant with the current version. Closing this as old bug.

Thanks for your evaluation Julien. Reporter, if you think your issue is still valid and needs to be addressed, don't hesitate to reopen it with additional information. Closing for now.
