    Hi,
    I like pydev very much and I am very happy with it.
    But there is a little change I want to make for the moment.
    I never programmed with java until now, but I looked into the pydev source code and it looks that I can do it by myself.
    So far so good, but…

    The difficulty for me is to setup the project that way, that I can make a change and rebuild that stuff on my PC.
    I have download the pydev source code.
    How do I open this source now with eclipse correctly so that it is possible to re-compile it?
    Is it too difficult for a newbie?

    By the way – what I want to change is: The Auto-completion shows  (for my personal opinion)
    sometimes to much. So I want to include a option that names which are starting with a special string or character given by the user are not shown in the Auto-completion context.

    Thx and regards

    Hi Fabio,

    that is exactly what I was searching for. Great !
    So I have tried it and did some progress - but not reached the goal complete.
    What is working now:
    -I can start the project,so that a second eclipse+pydev is coming up
    -I can see there my changes in the pydev auto completion settings
    -If I try to add a new project, than it will crash ( with or without my changes )

    So here is one further question.
    Is it needed to bring it complete to work or
    is it now possible to build only the auto completion part ( with my changes ) and to use this as replacement for the released pydev auto completion part ?
    If possible , please can you give me some idea how?
    I played a little bit with  the 'Export deployable plug-ins and fragments'  function from the  plugin.xml. With that its possible to build a File which is named "com.python.pydev.codecompletion_0.9.7.1.jar".
    But I dont have a plan what to do with it.

    Regards and many thx for the help
