PyDev 5.3.1 Released

Release Highlights:

• Important PyDev now requires Java 8 and Eclipse 4.6 (Neon) onwards.

  • PyDev 5.2.0 is the last release supporting Eclipse 4.5 (Mars).

• Code Completion

  • Substring completions are on by default (may be turned off in the code-completion preferences).
  • Fixed issue with code-completion using from..import..as aliases.

• Others

  • Auto-fix imports with Ctrl+Shift+O properly sorts items based on the same sorting improvements for code-completion.
  • When fixing unresolved import (with Ctrl+1) it properly resolves dependent projects (bugfix for regression in 5.3.0).
  • async and await keywords are properly highlighted.
  • async blocks properly auto-indented.
  • In PEP 448 list unpack variable was not being marked as a "Load" variable (which made the code analysis yield false positives).
