I guess this is appropriate to the list... the funky things in eclipse that were happening are hard to describe, but first let me say that none of the other ide's had any funky things happening so I don't think it was my code. That said: I'm working on a command line bulk file renaming tool (using cmd.py) in which I can redirect input to a batch file if I want to, and redirect output to a file (for testing purposes). Running within an eclipse console, I could run through one batch file after which input returns to the console, and then try to run through the same batch file again by typing in my 'run' command; suddenly it would be as if a bunch of the tool's commands were executed having little (but something) to do with the batch of commands I just ran, producing a lot of output that didn't really make any sense. When I stepped through the debugger it got really weird: for example, at one point I went to the variables pane and clicked to open 'self' and it was at that moment that all this output came through on the console. Absolutely nonsensical.
I'll check out the new stuff for eclipse. -Rick Fabio Zadrozny wrote: >> Anyway, I am extremely frustrated.
