KDevelop 5.0 released
Version 5.0.0 of the KDevelop integrated development environment (IDE) has been released, marking the end of a two-year development cycle. The highlight is a move to Clang for C and C++ support: "The most prominent change certainly is the move away from our own, custom C++ analysis engine. Instead, C and C++ code analysis is now performed by clang." The announcement goes on to describe other benefits of using Clang, such as more accurate diagnostics and suggested fixes for many syntax errors. KDevelop has also been ported to KDE Frameworks 5 and Qt 5, which opens up the possibility of Windows releases down the line.
