Can someone explain this little gem to me?

What is the question?
Do you have trouble parsing the message? It basically says: Use a debug build!
With release build there is no way to map a address in the program back to the source code, so valgrind can only output "something is wrong at 0xdeadbeef" while with a debug build it can say "something is wrong in main.cpp line 42".

What is the point of this message box?

See updated message...

I quote:
bq. The tool is designed to be used in Release mode.
...and this is not a typo by me.
-
Best would be to open a bug report on the "bugtracker":https://bugreports.qt-project.org - this way the devs get the attention. I'm pretty sure that typo will be fixed in the next version then :)

I guess it should have read [quote]The tool is designed to be used in Debug mode.[/quote] and Tobias misread and thought it actually said that. Indeed, please open a bugreport, or better yet, send a submit a patch for Qt Creator. It can't be hard to find this mistake in the source of Creator.

Oh, I have misread the message, damn:-)

Oh, I do know this "I read what it's supposed to say" thing...

Posted a bug report.
