PyDev 7.2.0 released

PyDev 7.2.0 is now available for download.

This version brings some improvements to the debugger and a fix for when PyDev could not properly find pipenv which could impact some users.

See: http://pydev.org for more details.

@prudhvikrishna to use the latest PyDev you need a newer version of Eclipse too (see http://www.pydev.org/manual_101_install.html for the compatibility chart -- search for: "Need to use older Eclipse/Java/Python").

@Fabio based on your comments, i am using eclipse Mars.2 Release (4.5.2) and Java 8 and also downloaded pydev 5.2.0 from this link "https://sourceforge.net/projects/pydev/files/"

still i am facing issues, same error

"Unable to create the selected preference page.
An error occurred while automatically activating bundle org.python.pydev (949)."

please help me out

@prudhvikrishna have you removed the version you previously installed? Also, those files from sourceforge should be unzipped in eclipse/dropins and Eclipse must be restarted (have you done so?).

Also, unless you really need to, I'd suggest updating Eclipse instead of using such an old version.

Another option would be getting LiClipse (http://www.liclipse.com/) which has PyDev configured out of the box (although it's commercial).
