QT with debugger

I am new to QT

I downloaded online installer for QT windows in the location

http://qt.nokia.com/downloads

I just tried simple program like printin hello world.

I Could execute the program. But I am not able to debug it. I am getting errors like

None of the debugger engines 'Cdb engine, Gdb engine' capable of debugging binaries of the type 'x86-windows-msvc2008-pe-32bit' is configured correctly.

Should I download a different version for debugging or Did I miss any procedure to include debuging facility?. Please help me to install QT with debugger.

It looks like there was a bug in QtSDK installer at some point. Firstly, try updating. Secondly, try this:

  1. open Qt Creator and go to Tools → Options... → Build & Run, select Tool Chains tab;
  2. there should be Auto-detected list, select in there Mingw as GCC for Windows targets and click Clone button;
  3. Now select cloned tool chain, you should be able edit specific fields in the bottom;
  4. Click Browse... right to Debugger field and select %QTDIR%\pythongdb\python_2.7based\gdb-i686-pc-mingw32.exe;
  5. Save your edits, create a new project (don't forget to select cloned tool chain) and try debugging.

Does it work?

Go to Tools -> Options -> Tool Chains, and tell us what you see. I have only ever used Qt with mingw, not Visual Studio, so I don't know if it will help, but look at this question and its resolution.

I had the same problem with QtCreator. An Update of the QtSDK solved it for me. You find the update mechanism in a menu of QtCreator.

Do you have Visual Studio installed? You need to have it installed so you can use this engines to debug.

Here is the link for the Visual studio: LINK

Enjoy!
