first of all I would like to thank all of you for providing pida.
When I found it I thought, wow, this can be also useful for writing reports or slides with latex. Especially for slides and math formulae a preview is useful and so I have written a proof of concept plugin (the usual Sunday afternoon hack) for displaying a pdf preview. The pdf previewer is based on python-poppler (the one from launchbox). When a document is saved the previewer compiles the code using rubber.

Hi, this is great work, thanks. You should publish the plugin on the PIDA site using the built-in PIDA plugin publisher. Then anyone can install from within PIDA.

I will do after a bit of rewrite because the pdf file it currently displays is hard coded ;-)
I guess there is a way to get a list of execution controllers. Can you give me a hint how?

There are very few, so you will probably end up writing your own, or maybe the generic execution is enough. To list them open the PIDA internal shell, (shift-control-m default keypress) and use:
>>> from pida.core.interfaces import IProjectController >>> list(boss.get_service('project').features(IProjectController))

Yes, please, I'd love to be able to use it! I currently use a terminal
to compile the tex file and launch evince to see the pdf. :S

The filename of the file that is to be compiled and the filename of the pdf are both hard-coded. You have to edit pdftex_preview/pdftex_preview.py und change both filenames to your needs. It's line 24 and 25 you have to edit.
The controller combobox does currently nothing (except of displaying a list of existing controllers).
There is at least one bug in pida that has to be fixed before there will be a final release, so there is no plan for a release yet. Please feel free to send me comments and improvement suggestions. (The plan is to write a new controller type for compiling latex documents. In the preview panel you will be able to choose a controller that is used to compile the document and also contains the filename of the pdf.)

I also forgot to mention that the plugin uses "rubber" to compile the pdf. In Ubuntu you can install it as a package. Otherwise you can change the corresponding source line to use pdftex directly.
I've just download poppler-python-0.6-experimental but after the ./
autogen.sh
I've got the following error:
checking for python extension module directory... ${exec_prefix}/lib/
python2.5/site-packages
checking for headers required to compile python extensions... not
found
configure: error: could not find Python headers
I'm sorry but I don't know what to do now, some python headers are
missing but which ones ?
Anyway if sombody can help me ...
Thanks
Francois

I've downloaded python-dev and some more packages and was able to
compile python-poppler
But when I enable pdftex preview plugin I've some error messages (see
below)

please change the file name as I pointed out in my first mail. There are no checks at all that the file really exists and I guess that an exception is raised which is not handled. (this is the disadvantage of a proof of concept ;-) )
