Qt 4.8: Step into Qt's source code on Windows using MSVC

[agarny]

You have the source of Qt?

Yes

The you should compile it with the configure option -debug-and-release.
After the nmake you will have two version of the Qt libraries, e.g. QtCore4.dll and QtCored4.dll.
The 'd' in the second filename marks the file as the one with debug information included.
When compiling as debug version in Visual Studio you can step into all Qt functions.

Hmm... why should I have to compile Qt? I have downloaded and installed the Qt SDK and asked for the MSVC version of Qt to be installed. Also, and for good measure, I thought, I installed Qt's source code. So, from there, I would expect to be able to trace into Qt's source code using CDB from within Qt Creator, but I am clearly wrong since I can't seem to be able to do that...
