CLion 2022.2 EAP7: Toolchain Updates
A new CLion 2022.2 EAP7 build, 222.3345.16, is available from our website, via the Toolbox App, or as a snap package for Ubuntu. If you are on macOS, there is a separate build for Apple Silicon (M1 chip). Those who are already using EAP6 can apply a patch to update to EAP7.
