I want to setup Qt Creator (3.0) in a way, that I can debug into the Qt classes. So I download the corresponding src code (http://gitorious.org/qt/qt5) and install it in a directory (e.g. c:\Qt5\src).
Then I have my own project. Where do I need to set the source code path of Qt (c:\Qt5\src), so I can debug my code, but also into a Qt class where necessary.
-- Edit:Pavel's comment --
Pavel has given a good hint: But I am using a precompiled version of Qt/Qt Creator. So I am basically looking for a solution which does not require me to compile from source. Nevertheless a useful hint. Thanks.
If you are using a prebuilt version just remap the source code location as described in Mapping Source Paths:
Mapping Source Paths
To enable the debugger to step into the code and display the source code when using a copy of the source tree at a location different from the one at which the libraries where built, map the source paths to target paths:
- Select Edit > Preferences > Debugger > General.
- In the Source path field, specify the source path in the debug information of the executable as reported by the debugger.
- In the Target path field, specify the actual location of the source tree on the local machine.
To get "the source path in the debug information of the executable as reported by the debugger", you can activate the "Use Tooltips in Stack-View when Debugging" option by right-clicking in the Stack View and move the mouse over a specific function call.
