MonoDevelop Python Tutorial 1

I put together a quick walk-through of how to setup the Python add-in for real Python development. You will need a recent check-out of MonoDevelop trunk.

    Link fixed, thanks!

    Thanks for the flattery. Right now it’s just me while I ramp up a few projects. After which a few others will will join in. I’m working on various contracting projects related to infrastructure and performance tuning.

    I can’t access the trunk (second link). Is the server down?

  5. That addin is just awesome. MUCH improved from the old one.

    I’m really looking forward to MonoDevelop 2.1 now :)

    (Actually, heck with it! I can’t wait; I’ll just use trunk. It can’t be any buggier than the in-house software I have to use at work every day…)

    Yes, it appears it was down shortly.

    Just in case someone want to try this and have the same problem than me : under ubuntu (and debian?), to build monodevelop from the svn, you may need to do:
    ln -s /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gtksourceview2-sharp.pc /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gtksourceview-sharp-2.0.pc (at least under karmic koala).

  9. @zanko: That’s plain wrong. The gtksourceview2-sharp and gtksourceview-sharp-2.0 libraries are NOT compatible. However, they’re parallel-installable, so you just need to install the correct package (I don’t know what it’s called on Ubuntu).

    Also, gtksourceview is only necessary if you’re building the optional Boo binding.

  10. bug report: if we press enter at the begining of a line which ends by a :, instead of put it to the same indentation one line after, it indent one more.

    (sorry for my bad english)

  11. … and the first python indexation is a bit longer than expected, I’m doing now from longer than two hours and it’s not ended…

    unfortunately i’ve only had time to optimize the lookup and not the indexing. i hope to get to this eventually.

    as for the other bug, should be a relatively simple fix.
