Use a comment to improve code analyst function in PyDev like ZendStudio

Question

In Zend Studio, I can use

/**
@return CUser
 */
function getUser() {
}

to tell IDE, the type of return value of the getUser function is CUser.

but I can't do the same thing in pydev, I want to know how I can do the same thing.

PyDev does have predefined completion modules. It doesn't look like it works as nicely as ZendStudio, but it's similar to the feature you're looking for.

Take a look here: http://pydev.org/manual_101_interpreter.html#PyDevInterpreterConfiguration-PredefinedCompletions

You basically define a module that acts like an interface/documentation of your module.
