[Python-announce] PyDev 12.0.0 Released

[Fabio Zadrozny]

PyDev 12.0.0 Release Highlights

-

*Debugger*
- *sys.monitoring* is now used in Python 3.12 (and it's *much* faster
than any previous version).
- A new setting was added in the *Preferences > PyDev > Debug* to
debug *just my code* (meaning that when stepping it will just step
into files under PyDev source folders).
- Improved the step into function (activated with *Ctrl+Alt* then *Click
function* to step into).
- Support for Python 3.6 and 3.7 was dropped (only Python 3.8 onwards
is now supported).
-

*Ruff*
- Ruff can now be used as a code formatter.
- The latest ruff (*0.1.x*) is now supported (as it broke backward
compatibility in its *0.1.0* version).
-

*Code Analysis*
- Fixes in semantic analysis to better determine if strings in
annotations should be checked for symbols or not.

Note: *Only Python 3.8 onwards is now supported*
* *Python 3.6* and *3.7* support is now *dropped* (please use *PyDev 11.0.3*
if you still use it).
