Hello all!

How many of us share a common story.  We've been using Maya
and MEL.  Now we're
using maya and python.
We  want to code a plugin, we need code completion.  We've
found the excellent
PyDev and PyDev extensions.  We've installed it on mac and
windows..

In the configuration we try everything we can.. 
Some autocompletion works, but we get strange errors.

We add the .pyc files as forced builtins.. They show up in
the import statements
but their internal functions aren't visible.
We import maya.standalone but it gives errors in linking.
We try to launch the python interpreter and it freezes.

We go back to using our text editor and feel frustrated.

Guys!  Let's make a step by step process for using Python
and PyDev and PyDev
Extensions with Maya on Mac, Linux and Windows.

Can we extract the site-packages and use another python
interpreter?
Can we add all the modules by hand to the forced built-ins?

Let's get this going together, then we can all  have the
same success story!

Just a note on my setup:

Macintosh OS X.5 Leopard
Maya 2008, Eclipse and PyDev and PyDev Extensions (eval
version)
Added the Maya python interpreter to PyDev
Added all the maya modules as forced built-ins
It seems to be having a problem with dlopen loading the .so
files.. Reason:
image not found

I think solving this problem would go a long way towards
getting it up and running
on OSX.  That would be a huge step forward for all of us.

Update:

Since the original posting I have gotten Maya and Python at
least executing
from within Eclipse.
The instructions are here:

http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=4800840

However, code completion is still unavailable for the
mostpart.

Thank you!

Hi Alex,

There has been a couple of message from Maya users earlier
in this board (we
might be 3 or 4...). Actually the code completion not
working for maya commands
(though it works for the API if you noticed) is not a PyDev
problem but comes
from the way maya.cmds is set up. It seems to contain only
stubs and then is
populated with the command list at run time. It's Autodesk
that needs to be
bugged about it.
