PyDev 6.4.3 Released

PyDev 6.4.3 Release Highlights

PyDev changes:

• Debugger

  • Notification of threads is done as they're created instead of synchronized afterwards.
  • Support for using frame evaluation disabled by default as it made the debugger much slower on some cases.
  • Fixed case where breakpoint was missed if an exception was raised in a given line.
  • Properly break on unhandled exceptions on threads.
  • Add missing import which affected repl with IPython.
  • Fix for case where breakpoints could be missed.
  • Fixed issue tracing lamda functions.
  • pydevd.settrace() could end up not stopping the debugger properly.
  • Fixed critical error on debugger (could deadlock when creating a new thread).

• Code Formatter

  • It's now possible to use the PyDev code formatter using the command line.

    • Install with: pip install pydevf
    • Fixes many common formatter errors.
    • Tries to keep code close to the original formatting.
    • see: https://github.com/fabioz/PyDev.Formatter for more details.

  • Fixed issue where blank line was being put in the wrong place in the PyDev code formatter.

• Grammar: fixed issue parsing f-strings.

• Fixed issue sending current line to interactive console (F2).
