#121 cannot set interpreter

[Anonymous]

PyDev 0.9.4
Eclipse 3.0.1
OS X 10.4 (Apple Java 1.4.2_07)

When
Menu->Window->Preferences->Pydev->Python Interpreters->new
(interpreter) . chossing any interpreter that should be valid out of
the following produces the error described:
/sw/bin/python
/sw/bin/python2.3
/sw/bin/python2.4
/usr/bin/python
/usr/bin/python2.3
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python/Versions/2.3/bin/python2.3

The error: the window saying that the interpreter is being examined
(?) opens briefly and then a "Invalid thread access" appears in the
Error Log. This is the complete error:

Ok, FIXED.

Cause of Problem: spaces in path

Details: I had eclipse installed under a path with spaces:
/Applications/eclipse 3.0/Eclipse.app/..

The solution was renaming to eclipse_3.0

Hope all the bugs are as easy to fix as this,

keep up the good work on pydev, it really rocks!

yeah, spaces always get in the way for some things (but this
I didn't know myself...)
