Re: [Jython-users] Newb question: how do I determine an object's public methods?

[Jake B <ota...@gm...>]

Thank you for the quick replies! Jythonconsole is very interesting. Also, I
found that the commercial version of Pydev supports some autocompletion and
autoimports libraries. Unfortunately, Pydev autocompletion doesn't work
perfectly, and jythonconsole does not yet adequately fulfill my needs for an
editing environment.
For now, I'd just be happy to have the inspect module working. The developer
of jythonconsole says that he uses inspect.py in his implementation, but
whenever i'm using jython and I try to import it, I always get an error
message saying that the module cannot be found. When I'm in python, however,
I'm able to import it just fine.
If anyone has any advice as to how I could troubleshoot this, I would
greatly appreciate it if you would let me know. Thanks.

Jake
