v2.6 [Jul 31, 2012]
Interactive console:
-It's now possible to use the interactive console attached to a debug session. (patch from Hussain Bohra)
-To use this feature either right-click a frame in the debug view and choosing PyDev > Debug console or create a new Interactive console as usual (Ctrl Alt Enter and choose 'PyDev Debug Console' -- but note that this option will only be enabled when in a debug session with a selected frame in the Debug view.
-Fixed issue where completions from the console did not work properly with '%' because quoting was not being properly done.
-Fixed issue where the execfile() redefinition in the PyDev console did not use the proper globals
-When launching interactive console, PYTHONPATH order is properly kept (patch from James Blackburn).
-Fix pasting into the middle of the console (patch from James Blackburn).
-For paste, only go to the end of the line if the cursor isn't in range (patch from James Blackburn).
PyUnit:
-Improved preferences page configuration (links shown to add options).
-Improved test discovery in PyDev PyUnit runner (exclude/include files/tests options added).
Jython:
-print may be used in dotted names as Jython requires for grammars 2.4 and 2.5.
Others:
-In a build, PyDev could end up reading the contents of files unrelated to Python.
-Django project startup compatible with django 1.4.
-Assignments to builtins when in the class-level no longer generate a warning.
-Fixed issue starting new thread in the debugger (fix for paste/waitress).
-Fixed error configuring interpreter if os.path was not present.
-Fixed issue when configuring interpreter which has unicode characters in the PYTHONPATH.
-When searching for external files, also take a look at the configured projects, as it may be that the file should actually be found in an external source folder.
-Fixed issues getting marker on files with a dirty editor and where we could end up getting markers from other files.
-The scripting output console is not shown unless there's actually some output to show.
-A bunch of other minor fixes.
