[Pydev-users] [Users] RE: Scripting with Jython / getting started

The following forum message was posted by fabioz at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pydev/forums/forum/293649/topic/4431233:

Yes, the default dir() sucks for jython since most things are reflected...

On org.python.pydev/PySrc/jyimportsTipper.py, there's a dirObj method that can
provide a better dir() for jython (you should be able to add that to your pythonpath
at runtime and use it -- i.e.:
sys.path.append('..../path_to/org.python.pydev/PySrc/')

Note that ideally you'd create your own marker type... (add it to the plugin.xml
and restart eclipse)

	<extension
       id="my.marker"
       name="My marker name"
       point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers">
	   <super type="org.eclipse.core.resources.problemmarker"/>
	   <persistent value="true"/>
	</extension>

Then you'd do something as:

resource.deleteMarkers(markerType, false, IResource.DEPTH_ZERO)

Then create the markers you want... you can use:

org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.MarkerUtilities.createMarker(IResource, Map, String)

to create them (there's a nice tutorial regarding markers at:
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Mark%20My%20Words/mark-my-words.html).

Cheers,
