  Hi @rsacchettini, Clang is a double-sided sword. If it works, it gives you fantastic insight in your code - but if not, you often have no idea why. I'd recommend you nevertheless to start an own discussion topic here, we might be able to help you get it at least running. Can you at least work on a small example project? Also note that the CMake integration is in flow currently, so there might be regressions in .0 releases. You might want to try the last stable or the next snapshot release.

  @GarryJ said in Qt Creator - clang code model doesn't find types, even though code compiles: CMAKE_SYSROOT Thanks I had the same issue, had the CMAKE_SYSROOT configured ok, toolchain working ok at the CMAKE level, but did not have the right QtCreator Kit setting "Sysroot:" on the right directory. Technically speaking, it was my fault, like no one is supposed to ignore the law, but just the same without clear indication, everyone needs a lawyer to know the law. Validating the sysroot setting when configuring the kit is not that easy until you make that mistake. Should be documented with a bit more warnings about the role of it and how to ensure this is working and valid... Thanks a lot anyway !

  @enricop said in Symbols parsing and finding stops working Qtcreator v4.11.0 + CMAKE on linux x64: ClangCodeModel Managed to resolve this issue which was: Although the cmake Cmakelists.txt file was correctly setting the CMAKE_SYSROOT variable, it was not picking it up. Same thing when using a toolchain file that specified it. Instead the sysroot has to be specified in double in the kit settings "Sysroot:" For a number of things the clang model is highly sensitive to the cmake configuration and what's generated in the current build dir. But in this case the sysroot variable kit setting line is compulsory. This issue can be closed.

  Are you looking to do error-checking and error-prevention by ensuring (before "shipping" an application) that all your C++ types that should be registered are, indeed, actually properly registered? If that is your goal, then I commend you. I am interested in that topic as well. So far, I have been able to greatly increase detection of many such issues using a combination of: total ban on "qml warnings". (things that qml prints as "warnings" tend to be what I consider fatal bugs). launch the application during automated testing use automated scripts to scan the output of the launched application for any forbidden output such as "unregistered datatype" and "failed to load component" The ban on warnings that I mention in point (1) is achieved by installing (in C++) a Qt custom message handler to spy on all logged messages and abort if any messages are "warnings" emanating from a qml file: https://github.com/219-design/qt-qml-project-template-with-ci/blob/4d81552d77/src/app/qml_message_interceptor.cc#L44 Launching the application during C.I. on a headless machine is done with Xvfb: https://github.com/219-design/qt-qml-project-template-with-ci/blob/4d81552d772c32b7d62edb4b4f0f678ca92bed4f/run_all_tests.sh#L50 The warnings-ban could be used on any platform. The Xvfb automation, to my knowledge, would be limited to Linux applications. Therefore a parser-based detection system could be a more cross-platform portable solution. If you come up with a parsing-based solution, I'm sure that I and many other users that combine C++ with QML would be happy to try out your solution.

  hi @mrluzeiro reducing the number off lines inside your classes usually helps :) maybe Turing off the clang code model will help as well, it can cause trouble in this regard.

  @xylosper said in Qt MaintenanceTool & Online Installer Network error : Socket operation timed out: @sierdzio I have same issue and it's been more than couple of weeks. Still it doesn't work. Yeah but in recent days it's got even worse :-) Anyway, there is a solution - switch to Linux, there the maintenance tool works fine. But it's not a solution that will fit everybody. If any of you are commercial users - use your special powers to kick some butts so this gets fixed. If you aren't - well, either wait or build manually from source :-/

  @firecat said in Can QtCreator's .pro file be formatted? Make text align and look better? Does ClangFormat-like tools work on .pro files?: Does Qt have any plans to develop this tool? I doubt since Qt switches to cmake in Qt6 although qmake is supported too but no longer really developed.

  @laine I don't know if this is your problem/you are already aware, but do you understand that .bashrc is not always read? It's only read in when bash is started interactively (like a terminal shell). Do you need to check if your .profile/.bash_profile is source-ing it?

  @laine said in How to adapt QtCreator with 4K screen in Ubuntu ?: Do you compile qt-wayland support lib yourself ? Or how do you enable it ? I don't know, sorry; I've never done it myself. I suggest you subscribe to the Qt Creator mailing list and asking there -- you'll find Qt engineers on that list.

  @SPlatten said in Qt Creator debugger, very slow: I'm finding that when the debugger stops at a break point it takes an extremely long time for the animation to stop and the watch windows to update with the current parameters. The microsoft console debugger (assuming this is what you're using) is the culprit. It's really slow, especially with big datasets. I've experienced a similar thing stepping into large codebases a couple of years back. Unfortunately, there's little you can do. If you can switch to mingw/gdb, as @aha_1980 suggested, you may see an improvement (I had).

  Nope, simply using the maintenance tool to get the sources, is not enough. I still get assembly stuff if I debug into library code such as QTimer. Ok, I can now see the sources, by doing this: Tools->Options->Debugger->General->Add Qt Sources... and selecting /home/me/Qt/5.14.1/Src which results in: Source path: /home/qt/work/qt Target path: /home/me/Qt/5.14.1/Src

  @Mozzie said in Is the documentation of qtcreator out of date?: but when i followed the symbol to the header of QLayout, this function is not marked as deprecated. That's understandable. As @Christian-Ehrlicher said, QLayout::setMargin() was deprecated in the header in Qt 5.13. (This was done by Christian, by the way -- thanks for helping to maintain Qt!: https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/251052 ) However, it was marked "obsolete" in the documentation since the very start of Qt 5.0: https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/src/widgets/kernel/qlayout.cpp?h=v5.0.0#n348 (probably even earlier) In this case, the header and the documentation were out-of-sync for a long time.
