Re: [Pydev-code] Released 0.5.3

[Aleks T. (Boston) <a...@to...>]

I invoke CPython as a part of the debugging process in 
org.python.pydev.debug.launching. You probably want to do something 
similar, but with using Runtime.exec and capturing your own stdio.

Doing autocompletion by launching CPython can be heavyweight for some 
users. I've just fixed a bug where someone was complaining about a 5 
second timeout when launching CPython through debugger as too low. His 
machine took at least 10 secs to launch python.
