The first version of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Developer Suite includes a toolset that makes developing Linux software applications faster and easier by allowing users to compile once and deploy to multiple versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Using the Developer Toolset, software developers can now develop Linux applications using the latest C and C++ upstream tools. These tools include:

Of course, developers can continue to use the version of the toolchain provided in Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Please see the release notes for support of specific minor releases.
