The Declaration view works in combination with the class browser to show you the
complete declaration of methods and data types. The Console view shows the actual output of the
Java program.
While much of Eclipse was designed to support developing applications in the Java language, plugins
provide support for C, C++, Perl, Python, and other languages.

home page at www.eclipse.org/.
KDevelop: KDE??™s IDE
KDevelop, another open source IDE licensed under the GPL, was originally created to provide an
IDE that interoperated seamlessly with KDE and the Qt framework (a large C++ application framework)
on which KDE is based. Over the years, however, KDevelop has evolved into an attractive,
feature-rich development environment supporting a number of languages other than C++. Today,
KDevelop is a general-purpose IDE, although it works best when used to create Qt-based applications
written in C++. Figure 28-3 shows a representative screenshot of KDevelop.
If you compare KDevelop??™s appearance to Eclipse??™s appearance, you will see that both have the
same types of components. In Figure 28-3, the class browser is located on the left side of the screen,
the project window is located in the upper-right portion of the screen, and KDevelop??™s version of
the Declaration view is displayed in the lower-right portion of the screen.
