How debugger with Qt on target from host?

[goli]

1. what do you mean "ssh connection without any extra options"?

2. I init the sysyroot to be the directory to the copy of the target root on the host, and I get this error:
   "Unable to find dynamic linker breakpoint function.
   GDB will be unable to debug shared library initializers
   and track explicitly loaded dynamic code."

I can't find any information about the right arguments for the debbuger...

[Duck]

1. Just ssh root@1.0.0.1, no -o ‘StrictHostKeyChecking no’

2. Pastebin the debugger log and put a link here (contents of the right pane of Windows->Views->Debugger Log)

[goli]

1. when I try only ssh root@1.0.0.1 , I get this message:
   "RSA host key for 1.0.0.1 has changed and you have requested strict checking.
   Host key verification failed."

2. The copy of the board root is /ROOT
   The executable and the file for debug are in /DEBUG-ROOT/MyProject
   the debug output :

Hi everyone,

I'm currently having the same issues as you with settings sysroot path since I'm using QtCreator 2.5.1 (before I used 2.2.1 and no problem at all with remote debugging).

Have you successully find out this issue? I'm curious about the solution!

Thanks

[goli]

Hi Noth35 ,

Sorry but i didn't figure out how to fix this and make it work....
however, I understand that we need to config this property to be the directory of the copy of the device filesystem on the computer(the root of filesystem).
when I config this i get into debug mode, but the debbuger can't stop on breakpoints...

I will be happy to know if you will find solution for this isue.

[Noth35]

Hi goli,

Thanks for your reply. I did really hope you had the solution.
I'll continue to look for a way to set it, I will reply if I'll find something...

So you debug with printf/qdebug ;)?

[tobias.hunger]

In Qt Creator 2.5 the sysroot is part of the Qt version. Since that is not an ideal place in 2.6 we have moved it again;-)

Sorry for the inconvenience. I think the 2.6 version will fix quite a few issues wrt. remote devices and hope we can keep things in this area a bit more stable going forward.

[Noth35]

Thanks for your reply.

Is that also true for version 2.4? Seems to have same issue with it...
I'll keep using previous version of QtCreator, awaiting 2.6.
