Hi, It's a big day today, since we are rolling out CLion 2016.1 release. Please, welcome! This is the version that was previously tagged 1.5 – we hope our new versioning scheme doesn’t confuse you too much. We’re nearly done with the announced roadmap, though some CMake items are left for future updates. Many extra features have also found their way into this release. Read on for more details, and then download and try the new version right now! C++ language support This release brings long-awaited support for variadic templates (C++11). With the related fixes in the function

Hi, CLion 2016.1 is about to be released. However we still want to be sure some critical issues are fixed, so we've decided to roll out one more Release Candidate build. CLion 2016.1 RC2, build 145.257 is available now for download by the link. Please note that the patch update is not available from the previous RC build, and to use CLion 2016.1 RC2 you need to have an active license (or start a 30-day evaluation period). Check out the release notes and, please, let us know about any issue you meet in this build. If you are interested in all the features coming to CLion 2016.1 find

Hi everyone, We are approaching the final steps towards the CLion 2016.1 release, so it would be a good time to explain where the 2016.1 version number has come from. As you may know, this release was previously announced as 1.5. So you might ask, is this a major or minor upgrade? In fact it's kind of both, because it's got enough important features to qualify as a major upgrade, but at the same time, it's versioned as a minor upgrade. So what gives? Well, with the move to a subscription model, we planned to release more often and move away from major/minor versioning scheme, focus

Hello everyone, After all the big changes we've introduced previously (variadic templates support, new code generation actions, STL symbols auto-import improvements) we spent these weeks cleaning the code. We also went through many issues in our issue tracker that are now resolved and updated them. However, we kindly ask you - if the problem you reported is fixed in one of the EAP builds, please, let us know in the comments. This week we deliver a new EAP build 145.184 with a lot of changes in Quick Documentation (Ctrl+Q on Linux/Windows, F1 on OS X). You can download it from the conflue

Hi, Previous CLion EAP build included variadic templates support and was called experimental, since we were not sure about the quality of the support and the performance. After a week we see that though some issues and regressions are still present, the overall impression is positive, so we decided to push variadic templates to the upcoming release. Today another EAP build is available for download, and its main focus is code generation. Generate definitions and more CLion helps you implement your ideas at the speed of thought with the code generation features, getting routine and mu

Hi, Today we have an experimental CLion 1.5 EAP build for you to try. In the roadmap for version 1.5 we've promised to work on support for variadic templates. We've spent awhile working on it, and now this build (144.3891) does provide support for variadic templates, as well as fixes for many related issues. Before we go into details, let's explain why we call the build experimental. This means we can't guarantee now that all the provided changes and fixes will make their way to the final CLion 1.5 release. We'd like to be sure that the quality of the support and the performance is suffi

Hi, Today we've prepared another EAP build for you to deliver all the existing improvements and features we have at the moment. It can be obtained by downloading from our confluence page or via a patch update from the previous EAP build as usual. Among other fixes included we'd like to highlight a few: Formatting Enhanced formatting appeared for the case when lambdas are used as function call arguments. Now with "Chop down if long" and a new line for parentheses enabled formatted code looks much better (CPP-4648). CMake Several problems with completion during Auto-Reload were address

Hi, Thanks for all your interesting thoughts and comments on our previous EAP build, that included Python support plugin and attach to local process functionality. And today we are happy to announce the availability of the new CLion 1.5 EAP, build 144.3357. It's available for download from our confluence page, or use a patch update from the previous EAP build. Read some highlights of this EAP build below. CMake CMake changes in this update include: CMake 3.4.2 is bundled. In case you exit the IDE during the project reloading, CMake process started by CLion will be killed.

Hi, CLion is known to be a cross-platform IDE for C and C++. However, the first CLion 1.5 EAP build brought the Swift support to CLion and made IntelliJ-based Swift IDE on Linux possible. Recent CLion EAP build added support for Python. Let’s take a look at the features. Initial setup Getting started with Python in CLion is way more easier than starting with Swift, since the plugin is already bundled into the IDE and is on by default. All you need is to install Python SDK and point CLion to the Python interpreter for your project: Since CLion is using CMake project model as a basis,

Hi, With the recent 1.5 EAP build we’ve announced a new feature called Attach to local process. Let’s take a closer look at it. In general, you can find the information about debugging in CLion in the corresponding blog post, it also includes a short demo. So in case you are interested in various breakpoints types supported in CLion, built-in debugger UI, ways to evaluate and view variables, please, refer to the post to learn the details. These topics are also covered in our webhelp in details. Since the first CLion Public Early Access preview build we’ve been getting questions on rem

Hi, It’s been a while since we published the previous CLion 1.5 EAP build. And we are happy to announce that a fresh build (144.3143) is now available for download. A patch update from the previous EAP build is also available. This build includes a lot of goodies, so let’s start looking at them. Attach to local process This long-awaited feature allows you to attach to the process running on your local machine and debug it with CLion. It works with GDB on Linux/Windows and LLDB on OS X. To search a process to attach you can use either its name or pid: More details are available in

Hi, Last week we were mostly busy with rolling out updates for stable CLion 1.2 release, and this week we are back to CLion 1.5 Early Access Program.

Hi, Recently we’ve opened the Early Access Program for CLion 1.5, with many hot features on board that we’d like to introduce you to. Let’s take a closer look at a new feature called "Mark directory as". When you open the context menu for a directory and select "Mark Directory As", you can see three options: Each one serves a particular use case. Let's explain them going from the bottom up: (more…)
