After more than a year of work, I’m pleased to release another version of heaptrack, the Linux memory profiler! The new version 1.1.0 comes with some new features, significant performance improvements and – most importantly – much improved stability and correctness. If you have tried version v1.0 in the past and encountered problems, update to […]
Yes, folks. This year SIGGRAPH 2018 is in Canada and we’ll be there at the Qt booth, showing off our latest tooling and demos. These days, you’d be surprised where Qt is used under the hood, even by the biggest players in the 3D world! SIGGRAPH 2018 is a five-day immersion into the latest innovations […]
QtDay is the yearly Italian conference about Qt and Qt-related technologies. Its 2018 edition (the seventh so far!) will be once more in the beautiful city of Florence, on May 23 and 24. And, once more, KDAB will be there. I am also glad to announce that my talk has also been accepted: I am […]
KDSoap is a tool for creating client applications for web services without the need for any further component such as a dedicated web server.

Changes in […]
Clazy is a Clang plugin which extends the compiler with over 50 warnings related to Qt best practices ranging from unneeded memory allocations to API misuse. It’s an opensource project spawned by KDAB’s R&D efforts for better C++ tooling. At KDAB, we have a pretty cool Continuous Integration infrastructure to take care of our customers’ […]
“I have also done some last minute performance improvements with the help of KDAB Hotspot/perf, and I must say that the days of profiling with weird/huge perf command line options are gone, awesome tool!” Hotspot is a KDAB R&D project to create a standalone GUI for performance data. It is a replacement for perf report. […]
We have released version 2.9.0 of our Qt application introspection tool GammaRay. GammaRay allows you to observe behavior and data structures of Qt code inside your program live at runtime.

Today I want to share 13 mistakes regarding signals, slots and connect statements and how to find them at compile time with clazy, our open-source static-analyzer for Qt. Clazy is a compiler plugin which generates warnings related to Qt. You can read more about it in our previous blog posts: How to use static analysis […]
Linux perf is an immensely useful and powerful tool suite for profiling of C/C++ applications. I have used it extensively and successfully on various customer projects, both for desktop applications as well as automotive or industrial projects targeting low-end embedded Linux targets running on ARM hardware. The biggest problem with perf really is its usability, […]
Close to three months after the initial hotspot release, I’m happy to announce the release of version 1.1.0. Quick recap: Hotspot is a graphical frontend to the Linux perf profiler suite.
