Red Hat, the provider of open source solutions, has announced the general availability of Red Hat Developer Toolset 3.1, Red Hat’s selection of some of the latest, stable open source C and C++ compilers and complementary development tools.
Available through the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Developer Program and related subscriptions, Red Hat Developer Toolset 3.1 streamlines application development on the world’s leading enterprise Linux platform, enabling developers to compile applications once and deploy across multiple versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
New to Red Hat Developer Toolset 3.1 are:
- GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) 4.9.2, the latest stable upstream version of GCC, which provides numerous improvements and bug fixes
- Eclipse 4.4.2 with support for Java 8 and updated versions of Eclipse CDT (8.6), Eclipse Linux Tools (3.2), Eclipse Mylyn (3.14.2), and Eclipse EGit/JGit (3.6.1)
- Additional updated packages, including GDB 7.8.2, elfutils 0.161, memstomp 0.1.5, SystemTap 2.6, Valgrind 3.10.1, Dyninst 8.2.1, and ltrace 0.7.91.
As with all versions of Red Hat Developer Toolset, Red Hat Developer Toolset 3.1 allows for the creation of applications compatible with both Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 across physical, virtual and cloud environments, including OpenShift, Red Hat’s award-winning Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering. Additionally, these tools are delivered on a lifecycle separate from that of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, helping developers stay up-to-date with the latest innovations while retaining deployment stability.
“Across the open hybrid cloud, developers seek to leverage the latest and greatest development tools, but must balance this with the business’s requirements for stable and reliable applications and systems. Red Hat Developer Toolset 3.1 helps bridge these needs, delivering developer innovation while retaining a stable foundation for the creation and support of mission-critical applications, helping to bring forth the next-generation of enterprise applications,” said Jim Totton, Vice President and General Manager, Platforms Business Unit, Red Hat.
