pylint and pep8 not work with emacs24.2?

i try to intergrate pylint and pep8 into my emacs24.2, via some code like (require 'python-pep8) and (require 'python-pylint) in my .emacs.But i got the error as shown below:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function define-compilation-mode)
   (define-compilation-mode python-pep8-mode "PEP8" (setq python-pep8-last-buffer (current-buffer)) (set (make-local-variable (quote compilation-error-regexp-alist)) python-pep8-regexp-alist) (set (make-local-variable (quote compilation-disable-input)) t))

It seems like the define-compilation-mode is not defined.Any idea ?

Solution

  • Looks like python-pep8.el is missing a

    (require 'compile)

    at the top.
