Question

Howto ignore specific undefined variables in Pydev Eclipse

Answer 1

+1 A:

I suspect pydev may have better, specific solutions, but what about just putting some code at the start of your program, such as:

if not hasattr(os, 'symlink'): os.symlink = None

Yeah, it's a hack, but, unless pydev does have specialized solutions (unfortunately I don't know of any, but then I'm no pydev expert;-), may be better than nothing...

I would rather not change my source code to deal with Pydev if at all possible. Also it appears that you have to do this at the method/function level for each undefined variable (doing this globally didn't work for me).Hopefully there are settings that I can add to my Pydev project file.

Answer 2

+1 A:

I use pydev + pylint.

With pylint you can add which messages to ignore in the Preferences>Pydev>Pylint>"Aggruments to pass to pylint" section.

--disable-msg=W0232,F0401

You can ignore messages in-line as well with comments:

os.symlink(target, symlink) # IGNORE:<MessageID>

Mouse-over the "x" where the line numbers are to see the message id.

Does pylint disable the normal pydev messages or is that just to ignore them in pylint? Also, I don't get a message id when mousing-over the "x" -- just 'undefined error from import: symlink'.

pylint is somewhat of an add-on. You may be using the Pydev>Editor>Code Analysis feature. (Check if "Do code analysis?" is checked) I'm not familiar with how this feature works.
