You might want to check out eclim too. It connects/integrates Vim to a
headless Eclipse ( or headed, or embedded editor )
and get the same sort of Java autocomplete and refactoring stuff via
regular Vim stuff (like ctrl-n ).
I think it's pretty flexible, so it might be able to harness PyDev and
other Eclipse plugins as well.
