Almost half a year in the making, KDevelop 5.2 is a major release that introduces more analyzer plugins to the Analyzer menu entry implemented in the previous release, KDevelop 5.1. These include Heaptrack, a heap memory profiler for Linux apps written in C/C++ and Cppcheck, a popular static analyzer for the C++ programming language, which can be used from inside KDevelop by default.
Apart from the new analyzer plugins, KDevelop 5.2 comes with a bunch of improvements for the C++, Python, and PHP programming languages. For PHP support, this release introduces the callable type, process member properties and calls for unsure types, null and spaceship coalesce operators, support for non-scalar constants, support for variadic functions, and PHP7 IIFE syntax parsing.
There’s also support for the Class::{expr}() syntax from the PHP 5.4 series, support for variadic functions in the documentation pop-up, the ability for $this to act as an array when using ArrayAccess, and support for additional cases of function argument unpacking, which received better syntax support. On the other hand, the C++ support was improved with better performance of C++ code completion.
