KDevelop 5.0 Beta 2 and 4.7.3 Releases! (February 01, 2016)

Hey all!

I have the pleasure to announce the releases of two new KDevelop versions:

On one hand, there is the new and shiny KDevelop 5.0 Beta 2 release, which brings us much closer to a final release. Tons of issues have been resolved, many features got polished, and even our UI cleaned up a bit here and there. And did I mention impoved OS X and Windows support? See here for more:

https://www.kdevelop.org/news/kdevelop-50-beta2-release

Besides this new beta release, which is where most of our effort went into, I am also happy to announce KDevelop 4.7.3, a new bugfix release of our latest stable KDE 4 based KDevelop. Several annoying problems are resolved now, see the announcement for more information:

Many thanks to everyone involved!

KDevelop 5.0.0 Beta 1 available! (October 28, 2015)

Hello all,

displaying size meta data of classes and members in KDevelop thanks to Clang

I’m very glad to finally announce the first beta of KDevelop 5.0.0, based on Qt 5, KF 5 and Clang: https://www.kdevelop.org/news/first-beta-release-kdevelop-500-available

Like I’ve said previously, I’m very thankful of the tons of contributors that made this step possible. From the early testers, over the many new KDevelop contributors who helped a lot in porting our code base to Qt 5 and KF5, to the people that worked on improving kdev-clang and all the other areas. It’s a great feeling to finally release this beast. A year ago, just after we started in this process, I still wasn’t too sure we can pull it all off. Now, look where we are :) “Just” a few more weeks of polishing and I’m positively sure KDevelop 5.0.0 will be a really good milestone.

That said, I also want to express my thanks towards the KDE e.V. which graciously sponsored our recent KDevelop/Kate sprint in Berlin. We rented a flat for the 8 hackers that visited Berlin and had a productive five days directly after the Qt World Summit. Personally, I worked on kdev-clang and polished it a bit more in the preparation of the first beta release. One handy feature I added is the display of size information about classes and member variables, displayed in the image to the right.

KDevelop 4.7.0 Beta 1 Released (July 04, 2014)

Hey all,

just a quick announcement: KDevelop 4.7.0 Beta 1 was released! Head over to the announcement on the KDevelop website to read more:

https://www.kdevelop.org/news/kdevelop-471-beta1-released

Cheers, see you soon with a KDevelop 4.7.0 stable release :)

KDevelop 4.4.0 Beta 1 Released (August 15, 2012)

Hey all!

After quite some slacking on my side, I’ve finally managed to drop the good news: KDevelop 4.4.0 Beta 1 is released!

Our 4.4 branch already contains some more interesting changes for the next beta, stay tuned. Oh and yeah, we’ll try to release 4.4.0 final sometime in September, I hope.

Cheers

KDevelop 4.3.0 Beta 2 Released (February 15, 2012)

Hey all!

I’ve just posted the news on the KDevelop website: KDevelop 4.3.0 Beta 2 is released!

Please test it and report feedback as usual. I think it’s safe to assume that we will release 4.3.0 final in about 2-4 weeks from now.

Considering that my university semester is nearing its end, I will finally have more royal hacking time again! I’ll continue to squash bugs and improve the performance of KDevelop of course :) Most definitely I’ll try to further improve the C++11 support. But maybe I finally have some time again to work on “something bigger”, like helping Miha Čančula in writing a kick-ass unit-test integration for KDevelop (see unittest branches). Then I plan to finally release some more of our “playground” plugins, most notably CSS language support and QMake project management…

Stay tuned for a bright KDevelop future :]

PS: I’ll step up as a mentor for a KDevelop GSOC this year, yet I’m still wondering about a proper topic… Ideas?

KDevelop 4.2 Beta 2 available (January 01, 2011)

Changes in KDevelop 4.2 Beta 2 since Beta 1

Highlights besides the usual bugfixes are probably the polished plugin configuration dialog as well as some performance improvements for huge projects.

    ChangeLog for kdevplatform v1.1.81
    ==================================
     
    * Milian Wolff: set version to 1.1.81 for beta2

    * Milian Wolff: fix: properly update outline on document change, was missing connect to signal from document controller
    * Dmitry Risenberg: Check for unloaded version control plugin in ProjectPrivate.
    * Dmitry Risenberg: Check for unloaded version control plugin in ProjectPrivate.
    * Milian Wolff: reintroduce the cleanup of 986ec7bb18211a7789e28c48fdc750668ae9b1d5 (no addViewSilently, no window->setArea in working set loadToArea), but fix the problem described in 2f586e506ac59153b0b95e008acc88cea490e7d3 (restoring of split views)
    * NicolÃ¡s Alvarez: DumpChain: avoid double quotes around indentation in debug messages.
    * Milian Wolff: hide non-project kcms from project config (e.g. php documentation)
    * Milian Wolff: properly sort kcms in settings dialog: language support user interface projects background parser source formatter environment plugins
    * Milian Wolff: also blacklist disabled plugins, if we now add the plugin to the X-KDE-ParentComponents of a kcm, it won't get loaded
    * Milian Wolff: mark generic project manager as project category, required for settings blacklisting
    * Dmitry Risenberg: Properly update Container's current widget when splitting views. BUG: 259908

    * Milian Wolff: second approach: properly implement removeRows without takeRow and speed up deletion of folders containing many items
    * Milian Wolff: Revert "optimize shutdown for big projects with lots of items in single folders"
    * Milian Wolff: optimize shutdown for big projects with lots of items in single folders
    * Milian Wolff: Refactor context browser plugin to make it useable without a toolview.

    * Milian Wolff: update splashscreen for 4.2

    * Milian Wolff: hide void-returning functions from code completion when we are inside an non-lvalue expression
    * Aleix Pol: Support as variables, variables that end with a number. This small problem made macro_optional_find_package not to work, have to be careful about that.
    * Aleix Pol: Don't propagate the URL change if the URL hasn't changed. Damn it, trailing slashes!! >.<
    * Aleix Pol: We don't need this recursive case anymore. The url change will be propagated by ProjectFolderItem itself.

KDevelop 4.2 Beta 1 released (December 18, 2010)

Hey all,

I’m happy to announce the immediate availability of KDevelop 4.2 Beta 1. This is a testing version and any kind of feedback would be welcome and appreciated. Please use our bugtracker. You can download the sources or wait for your distribution to create packages.

Note: Anyone who runs KDE 4.6 or later needs this version (or any later). This is because the SmartRange interface in Kate got nuked and replaced with MovingRange interface. Many thanks to David Nolden for more or less single handedly porting KDevelop to this new architecture.

The good news doesn’t end here though, KDevelop 4.2 ships with lots of notable changes and new features:

MovingRange` support (Thanks to David Nolden)
Grep Plugin rewrite with replace functionality (Thanks to Silvere Lestang, Julien Desgats, Benjamin Port)
QtHelp plugin now supports arbitrary .qch files (Thanks to Benjamin Port)
ManPage plugin (Thanks to Benjamin Port, Yannick Motta)
new look for code assistants (Thanks to Olivier JG)
filter for the project model view (Thanks to Eugene Agafonov)
improved “Problems” toolview, along with “TODO/FIXME” browsing (Thanks to Dmitry Risenberg)
better standards compliance in the C++ macro implementation (Thanks to Dmitry Risenberg)
argument dependent lookup for the C++ plugin (Thanks to Ciprian Ciubotariu)
open with external application by default (esp. useful for Qt Designer .ui files)
PHP: rainbow colors for all vars (and no nested functions or similar), esp. useful for scripts without Classes/Functions
code cleanup for working sets
better handling of locked sessions (locked session gets activated or the user gets asked whether he wants to remove the lock file)
improved Snippets editing usability

KDevelop 4.1 Beta 2 will be omitted, stay tuned for Beta 3 (September 21, 2010)

Hey everyone.

I was on a spontaneous trip last week and missed the Beta 2 release. Apol took over but my instructions where not clear enough and the packages where totally screwed up (the tags pointed to code in master, no the 4.1 branch).

I’m in the process of fixing things up and will create tarballs for Beta 3 and announce it to packagers later today.

Lets hope the actual release for users out there can happen later this week.

Sorry again, bye.

Second Markdownify Beta released (February 03, 2008)
