I am new to PyDev, written scripts using mainly notepad++ and jedit where I never had these issues.
In a module, I have defined a function – get_user_inputs(self). I used the argument self as PyDev would not let me define the function othewise (and apparently it is the right thing to do).

Now my question is how do I call this function and what argument should I pass?
function(self) does not work and self.function does not work as well.

This issue I am seeing only in PyDev. In jedit and notepad++ I am able to execute same code with no issues.

    The argument self is only necessary for class methods. It doesn’t make sense for normal functions.

    That means you either omitted a vital information in your question or there is a bug in PyDev.
