Trying to use Creator to debug QNX Neutrino apps

[schidester]

I'm trying to use Creator to debug QNX Neutrino apps remotely.

I've gotten as far as this: I can go to the Debug menu, select Start Debugging->Start and Attach to Remote Application, type in my
debugger (ntox86-gdb.exe), executable, and the IP/port of my target. When I click OK, there's a long pause, and finally a dialog: "The gdb process exited unexpectedly (code 101120)".

Any ideas?

Which version of creator are you using?

[schidester]

I'm using 2.3.0. I found out that I'm probably struggling with GdbEngine, and I also found a suggestion somewhere that I must use gdb >= 6.8, while the ntox86-gdb I'm stuck with is version 5.2.1. I hope there's a fix!

[tobias.hunger]

Actually we recommend using gdb >= 7.2.

Looks like direct support for QNX debugging was added to Qt Creator:

Add support for the remote QNX debugging protocol

I use Qt Creator for development (mostly QML), but for debugging C++ code, i use Momentics, you can set up a project that compiles and deploys in both tools.
