Red Hat Developer Toolset

Supported GCC updates along with other development tools

Red Hat Developer Toolset features and benefits

Red Hat Developer Toolset delivers the latest stable versions of essential GCC C, C++, Fortran, and supporting development tools to enhance developer productivity and improve deployment times. Available on Red Hat Enterprise Linux via most Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscriptions, Red Hat Developer Toolset makes it possible to compile once and deploy to multiple versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Components include GCC, GDB, SystemTap, OProfile, and more. Eclipse IDE and Git are also available via a separate installation.

When installed, Red Hat Developer Toolset does not replace the default system tools included with Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Instead, a parallel set of newer tools is provided for optional use by developers. The default compiler and debugger, for example, remain those in the base Red Hat Enterprise Linux system. The companion tool, Eclipse IDE, is also available.
