Description captain 2009-08-08 12:52:41 UTC 
I have Python 2.6 installed to an alternate location and I always set this as the default platform, but each time I open
Tools->Default Platform, it shows that it reverts to Jython. This setting needs to stick so I don't have to set it each
time. I think it is causing issues with the auto-complete, because auto-complete is completely broken for me now. In
fact, it is so wrong, that it is more annoying than anything else. Netbeans 6.5 worked fine in this area.

I'm on Fedora 10 Linux x86-64.

I see this as well, even without Python installed to an alternate location as the OP reported. Each time I restart NB,
the default Python platform is Jython, even if I reset it to the installed cpython (e.g. Python 2.6.2). Fortunately,
each project remembers the platform properly.

I have autocompletion issues too, but I don't see it using the wrong platform (e.g., "import javapath" (which is in
Jython only) and then "javapath." +<CTRL>-SPACE will not give autocompletion from Jython.

Thank you for your reports.
This issue is different from Bug#152753, and has been REOPENED. 
A patch has been created and should be uploaded within a few days.
However, autocompletion reports will be handled elsewhere. See Bug 153261
