Python type information for pylance autocompletion

[Dobid]

Hello,
Correct me if I'm wrong but JSBSim python module is generated by cython. I couldn't get autocompletion on vscode when using JSBSim module (they use pylance as a language server). I asked this question on the pylance github :
Pylance Issue #3471. They replied that the module maintainer has to provide type information. So I'm wondering if you guys could implement this feature to make life easier for vscode (pylance) devs.

OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Language : Python 3.7
JSBSim 1.1.0
Thanks !

Hi @Dobid, thanks for your feedback.

Indeed that would be a nice feature to have type hints in our Python module. I am currently adding that feature to JSBSim. The first step is in the PR #755 that prepares JSBSim for type hints stubs then there will be a second PR that addresses specifically your request.

Stay tuned !
