What is KDevelop ?
- KDevelop
- is a free, opensource IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for MS Windows, Mac OsX, Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD. It is a feature-full, plugin extendable IDE for C/C++ and other programing languages. It is based on KDevPlatform, KDE and Qt libraries and is under development since 1998.
- KDevPlatform
- is a free, opensource set of libraries that can be used as a foundation for IDE-like programs. It is programing-language independent, and is planned to be used by programs like: KDevelop, Quanta, Kile, KTechLab ... etc.
Versions
- KDevelop4
- Major rewrite based on Qt4/KDE4 with a powerful language architecture. Under heavy development and currently in Beta phase, recommended for C++ or PHP development with CMake or custom Makefiles as their build system. Recommended for Linux (all other OS might work, but are not tested yet).
- KDevelop3
- Very stable and mature IDE based on Qt3/KDE3 with support for many programing languages and build systems. No longer under development
