Latest stable versions of essential development tools allow
developers to compile once, deploy on any Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 or 6
RALEIGH, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Red Hat, Inc., (NYSE: RHT), the world's leading provider of open source
solutions, today announced the general availability of Red Hat Developer
Toolset 2.0. Available to all Red Hat customers with an active Red Hat
Enterprise Linux Developer subscription, Red Hat Developer Toolset
provides access to the latest stable versions of open source development
tools on a separate, accelerated life cycle.
Delivering a parallel set of the latest stable tools to those provided
with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat Developer Toolset 2.0 introduces
new tools to the content set available with Red Hat Developer Toolset
1.0. This includes Eclipse 4.3.0, Dyninst 8.0, and Strace 4.7, as well
as the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) 4.8 update. These additions to
version 2.0 allow developers to use some of the latest innovative tools
without dedicating cycles to installing and troubleshooting unsupported
community versions.
Red Hat Developer Toolset enables C, C++, and Fortran developers to
compile once and then deploy across multiple versions of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. There is no need for application re-writes as
compatibility is preserved, even when deploying to newer versions of Red
Hat Enterprise Linux. Additionally, the capabilities offered with Red
Hat Developer Toolset help developers more quickly diagnose and debug
applications, and even analyze application performance to isolate memory
and management issues.
Red Hat Developer Toolset is available via Red Hat Network for users who
develop applications for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6. Please see the Red Hat Developer Toolset release
notes for support of specific Red Hat Enterprise Linux releases. Red Hat
Developer Toolset is available through the following subscriptions:

Red Hat Developer Toolset 2.0 complements the general availability of
Red Hat Software Collections 1.0, which delivers the latest, stable open
source dynamic languages and databases to Red Hat Enterprise Linux
subscribers on a separate, more frequent release cadence.

"Delivering the application innovation expected by modern end users
necessitates the rapid adoption of emerging development tools, a need
that often forces developers to risk production stability on untested,
potentially unstable community releases. Red Hat mitigates this risk
with Red Hat Developer Toolset, delivering the latest stable C and C++
tools to developers, helping them to deliver great Linux applications
faster, across multiple versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux in
physical, virtual and cloud environments. Red Hat Developer Toolset
complements Red Hat Software Collections - a new offering for those
seeking updated dynamic languages or open source databases with the
stability and backing of a Red Hat subscription."
