KDevelop 3.5.x requirements

Before you start compiling your freshly downloaded KDevelop version, make sure that you have installed the following programs. Mind that you can get strange errors, if you use older versions.
Usually you can see which software version is installed in your computer by calling the program with a "--version" argument. For example to find which autoconf you have installed in your machine do:
   autoconf --version

Optional recomended software

These tools are optional, that means that KDevelop will work without them. But it will lack some features like documentation generation or searching over several files. So you should probably check out your system for these programs.

Please note that in order to use KDevelop language support for ada, pascal, java, etc. you will need a corresponding language compiler. KDevelop does not limit which compiler you should use but offers compiler options dialogs for some of them. Currently available compiler plugins are gcc, g++, f77, pghpf (Portland Group High Performance Fortran Compiler), pgf77 (Portland Group Fortran 77 Compiler), dcc (Borland Delphi Compiler) and fpc (Free Pascal Compiler).
