Build Debugging Helpers

[ferdna]

have you found a solution to this?

[ktk]

The compiled helpers have been replaced by gdb/python scripts in 2.x. They are indeed not needed there (unless you are on Mac).

Can you append your debugger log (contents of right pane of Windows->Views->Debugger Log)?

This is whats in the log.
However under QML Dump, it says "Cannot be complied"

There is no log for 4.2.1 because it says "Cannot be compiled" for any of them.

When I debug, I cannot see the strings.

If I go back to QtCreator 1.3.1, I can build for 4.2.1 and 4.7.3 and the debugger will show strings for both

After re-reading your mail: You are using Qt 4.2. There is no QML in that version. You should use at least use 4.7.1 if you want QML.

Just to clarify, I am using QT 4.2.1 AND QT 4.7.4

I also have Qt Creator 1.3.1 and 2.3

With QtCreator 1.3.1, I can get the debug helpers built and when I debug I can view QHash's and QStrings.

With QtCreator 2.3, I can build some of the helpers, some say "cannot be compile" or "Not Needed". I do not know if that is the correct display, however, when I debug I can NOT get a nice view of QHash's, QStrings, etc. I would like to know how can I get the "nice" view to display.

Right now, I am using 1.3.1 whenever I debug (for 4.2.1 and 4.7.4) so that I can see the Qt objects nicely.

I'm having the same problem except that I'm moving from Qt Creator 2.0.1 to 2.3.1. am on 64 bit linux, using Qt SDK 4.6.2.

Are you saying that if you're not using 4.7.1 Qt Creator will simply no longer display debugging information on Qt objects?

[enricong]

Was there any resolution to this issue?

[ktk]

No, I am not saying that. I am saying that there is no QML in Qt 4.2. This has nothing to do with Qt Creator at all, QML simply was not invented yet at that time.

Kind of late, but for the record: I had the same problem when using a newer version of Qt and QtCreator at RedHat 5.3. I solved it by building my own python enabled gdb as described at http://qt-project.org/wiki/QtCreatorBuildGdb.
