Just one month after the KDevelop 4.3.0 release, we are happy to announce the immediate availability of KDevelop 4.3.1 - a stable bugfix release.

After about nine months of extensive development, the KDevelop team is happy to announce the immediate availability of KDevelop 4.3. As usual, this feature release comes packed with new features, bug fixes and improved performance.

Hello everyone!

We finally have a new KDevelop forum! Thanks to the kind people from forum.kde.org for setting it up for us.

I thought it would be a good idea to get the forum started with a call for screenshots, which will then be shown here on the website. Either post the screenshot in the forum or post a link in the comments here. Please use a creative-commons license and write a short note on your screenshot!

See the forum thread for more details: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=218&t=99510

The KDevelop team is proud to announce the immediate availability of KDevelop 4.3.0 RC 1. This is probably the last testing version before the release of 4.3 final. This release candidate includes additional bug fixes and further improves the C++11 language support. Please try it out and give us feedback to ensure a smooth 4.3 release.

On the road to the final release of KDevelop 4.3.0, we - the KDevelop team - are proud to present you the second and probably last Beta release in the 4.3 series. It comes with additional performance improvements and bug fixes. Please try it out and give us feedback to ensure a smooth 4.3 release.

The KDevelop team is proud to bring to you the first release in the 4.3 series, for our adventurous users who want to try what is coming in the new KDevelop 4.3 release.

This release is centered in stabilization more than new features development, but there are quite some new features that you'll find interesting, like improved version control system integration and improved C++11 support.

After two eventful months the KDevelop team is happy to announce the immediate availability of KDevelop 4.2.3. This is a stable release which fixes dozens of bugs, hence we urge every user to upgrade to this new release. Distributions are notified and will provide updated packages shortly.

As always many thanks to all the contributors who made this release possible.

After two months of hard work the KDevelop team is happy to announce the first bug-fix release of the KDevelop 4.2 branch. KDevelop 4.2.2 fixes dozens of bugs. Many thanks to all the contributors who made this possible. Every user is urged to upgrade to this new release. Packagers are notified, most people should hence just wait for an update in their distribution.

Only three months after the last feature release, the KDevelop hackers are proud and happy to announce the release of KDevelop 4.2. As usual, we also make available updated versions of the KDevelop PHP plugins.

You should find that KDevelop 4.2 is significantly more stable and polished than 4.1, with some important changes under the hood; we suggest that everyone updates to this version, if possible.

Please note that this version is required for users of KDE Platform 4.6 or higher. It will also work with KDE Platform 4.5 but Platform 4.4 or older are not supported.

Sometimes it’s hard to get started using a tool, some people call it white page syndrome, in KDevelop we had the gray page syndrome:

I guess you see what I mean.

To solve this problem we discussed many times about creating some way to Kickstart a KDevelop session properly, this is what I came up with. It’s nothing very different from what others do, but it’s ours, so that makes it immensely awesome. I guess you’ll understand about it easy by putting a video, looking forward to your feedback!

Finally I managed to get my job as the release dude done: http://kdevelop.org/kdevelop/kdevelop-430-final-released-basic-c11-support

Thanks to all the developers who sent in patches! The same goes to our loyal users for their continued support and bug reports :)

It’s really fun to work on KDevelop and - I’ve said it many times before - I’m really looking forward to our next releases! Even now our code in the master branches has some neat commits that make the eventual 4.4 release something to look forward to!

Hey all,

following the recent blog post on getting a forum for KDE software I decided to get one setup for KDevelop. Minutes after, it was all done, we now have a KDevelop Forum. Feel free to use it for discussions and user support around KDevelop and related applications. Development discussions etc. will still happen on our mailing list though.

To get the forum rolling, I’ve had the idea to use it for some crowdsourcing of KDevelop screenshots, see also the post on the KDevelop website:...
