Re: [Pydev-users] RSE and PyDev: 'Model provider updating pythonpath' has encountered a problem.

[Fabio Z. <fa...@gm...>]

Hi Daniel,

I think that the major problem there is that PyDev internally doesn't
work with some things as RSE would like, namely, PyDev works with the
Eclipse IResource structure in a very limited way (mostly, it works
with the actual filesystem resources when possible -- that works 2
ways: PyDev should deal better with external files than other plugins
but doesn't work so well with RSE, which I believe 'fakes' the Eclipse
IResource structure to the plugin). Unfortunately, currently changing
this in the PyDev design isn't a trivial task...

So, the support is limited to watching the contents of the file that
RSE provides for PyDev (which is the behavior that you'd also get with
external files).

Note that usually this isn't such a big limitation because the
filesystem itself usually has ways to mount a remote filesystem as if
it was local... see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace

It'd still lack launching in the remote env, but all the editing could
be done locally (and only launching would be done externally) -- you
still need to configure a local interpreter though.

Cheers,

Fabio
