What is a KDEVSES file?

KDEVSES files mostly belong to KDevelop by KDevelop Team. KDevelop is a free software integrated development environment for the KDE desktop environment for Unix-like computer operating systems. KDevelop does not include a compiler; instead, it uses an external compiler such as gcc to produce executable code. The KDevelop-Project was founded in 1998 to build up an easy to use IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for KDE. Since then, the KDevelop IDE is publicly available under the GPL and supports many programming languages. Most project dependent configuration is kept in the <project-name>.kdevelop and <project-name>.kdevses files. KDevelop project configuration files rather than in separate files as the other, more global, configuration settings. In short, those files are meant for:

  • <project-name>.kdevelop — global project configuration information.
  • <project-name>.kdevses — configuration information needed to restore the specific behaviours of the running session.

Both are XML-coded files. They can be viewed and (cautiously) altered using any text editor. There is a third project dependent configuration file, the <project-name>.kdevelop.pcs Persistent Code Store. This is a binary coded file holding an internal parser cache for the most part in order to speed up the loading sequence of the project. Additionally, this Persistent Code Store keeps information use by the Code Completion facility of KDevelop.

Trouble Opening a .KDEVSES File? These Steps Will Help

Because .KDEVSES files can come from different programs, they aren't universally openable.

  1. Identify the Source: If received from a C++ developer or a Linux programming workflow, it is likely a KDevelop session configuration file.
  2. Check the Header: Open the file in a text editor to inspect its opening lines.
    • <?xml indicates a standard XML configuration file.
    • Readable session paths confirm it is a KDevelop settings file.
  3. Use the Original Software: The original program is usually required; try opening it with KDevelop, Kate, or any XML editor, or ask the sender if unsure.
  4. Use this Webpage: Drag and drop the file into our viewer to detect the format, extract readable text/metadata, and preview when possible.
