Debugging in Eclipse

[anneranch]

EDITED
This EDITED post is of no big deal, however, it would be nice to know WHY "cannot import name 'Defaults' "

I shall try to find the "circular import " when I get less dangerous editing Python code HI HI HI

ImportError: cannot import name 'Defaults' from partially initialized module 'NanoVNASaver' (most likely due to a circular import) (/mnt/07b7c3f8-0efb-45ab-8df8-2a468771de1f/ECLIPSE_2023_06

Make sure you're either building from a fully intact git repository or PyPI tarballs. Most other sources (such as GitHub's tarballs, a git checkout without the .git folder) don't contain the necessary metadata and will not work.

For example, if you're using pip, instead of https://github.com/user/proj/archive/master.zip use git+https://github.com/user/proj.git#egg=proj

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I have successfully cloned nanoVNASaver Python code into Eclipse IDE.
I am ready to play / fix some flaky stuff.
