Cannot step into Qt source

I create a Qt project, build the project with "msvc2017-32bit" kit, and debug the project in Qt Creator.

The problem is I can not step into the Qt functions. I can stop at break-points in my own source code, but cannot stop at break-points in files in Qt src directory. When I step into a Qt function, the message "Stopped: "end-stepping-range"" appears by the debugging buttons. Why could this happen?

I installed the debugger tools for Windows in Windows 10 SDK, but the problem persists.

I run Qt on Windows, although a different compiler than you, and you can set the debug target paths by going to Tools->Options->Debugger. From here you can click a button Add Qt sources.... Below is an image of my setup and this works for me.

Follow the instructions from Qt here.

For Mac, the instructions are:

  • In Projects->Build&Run->Run->Run Settings->Run, select "Use debug version of frameworks".

There are different instructions for Windows, but I have not tried it yet.

You probably also need to have QT sources installed.

Go to the MaintenanceTool and check if Qt Creator 4.15.2 CDB Debugger Support and Debugging Tools for Windows has been selected.
