Debugging in Creator: possible to lock a window?
-
Is there a way to clear the debugger log?
-
There's something in the context menu of that view.
-
Got it...thanks.
The debugger log, and the commands window are in files here:
"debugger log":http://scopedin.com/text/

Mac... we could have figured that out quicker. Go to Tools->Options->Qt Version (or something similar), select the Qt version you are using, and "Rebuild" the debugging helpers.
-
I can't find that command, and I have to leave for a meeting now. I'll look around for it later, and report back. Thanks.
EDIT (for posterity): this is in preferences. Qt Creator->Preferences->Qt4, under the "Helpers" area (you have to click on "Details" to see what you're looking for. Then, build them...and sit for awhile, because it takes a few minutes, and you don't get any feedback while that's happening.
Anyway, I built the helpers...so, where should I look for the improved display of vectors and stacks and stuff? The "Locals and Expressions" window looks the same.
-
Any ideas, guys? Helpers are built and enabled, but I'm not seeing anything different. It would be very nice to have an improved view into some of the STL data structures.
Thanks.
-
Do you see any difference in the debugger log? The lines "dState changed from InferiorRunOk(11) to InferiorStopOk(14). dThe debugging helper library was not found at ." should look different now.
-
Upon closer look, it appears that this is partly solved:
I searched the debugger log for "helper library" and found nothing, so I assume that error is gone.
Some vectors are displaying better now. Here's a screenshot of a locals windows. The vector nyqInp (passed to the active routine as a parameter) is now displayed "nicely," but the member vectors coeffBuffer and inpBuffer aren't.

At least this is progress, but I'd really like to be able to see into member vectors, too.

Any ideas from anyone on this? Thanks.

Should I start a new thread with a different subject on this? It appears that the helper doesn't "help" on stuff pointed to by the "this" pointer.
