Eclipse - Pydev Code Completion (Unable to create the selected preference page)

I recently noticed that while using Eclipse, every keystroke I typed caused the code completion to kick in. I checked the PyDev --> Editor --> Code Completion tab, where it should have the time delay setting for auto-complete.

I get this error:

Error message

Unable to create the selected preference page.

org.python.pydev.ast.codecompletion.PyCodeCompletionPreferencesPage 
cannot be found by org.python.pydev_6.3.1.201802272029

I tried uninstalling/re-installing the PyDev module from within Eclipse, but I still get the same issue. I can access the Code Completion setting for Java/JavaScript/..., but not PyDev any more.

Eclipse Oxygen.2 Release (4.7.2)
PyDev for Eclipse 6.3.1.201802272029

Solution

  • Sorry about that. This is a bug in PyDev 6.3.1.

    I'll make sure it's fixed in PyDev 6.3.2.
