Eclipse not showing all problems from Pylint


I am currently trying to get Pylint to work with Eclipse.
I can see the output of Pylint in the console all right, but in the Problems view a lot of the messages are missing. For example in one file I have more than 500 messages in the console, and only 12 problems in the Problems view.

I have the Warnings/Conventions/Refactor severities put to Warnings in the pylint configuration of Eclipse. Use Pylint and Redirect Pylint output to the console are both checked.

To be sure I don't provide a pylintrc file.

My versions are:
Ubuntu 12.04
Eclipse 3.7.2
PyDev 2.8.2.2013090511
Pylint 0.25.0

Thanks for your help.


Solution

  • Is there any chance you can update PyDev? I remember that PyLint changed its format, so, the older PyDev (2.8.2) may not be able to work with it... (can't you upgrade PyDev/PyLint? -- this should make things easier to get support).

    Note that PyDev now requires java 7 and at least Eclipse 3.8 (if it's hard to get things up to date, you may want to check LiClipse: http://brainwy.github.io/liclipse/ which gives you an Eclipse standalone with PyDev bundled).
