shift-F11 stopps debugging

HoMa

Hi all!

I am working on a desktop database app in QtCreator using the mingw tool chain. I can build debug and release, so everything looks fine. But when I press shift-F11 while stepping through code in the debugger the process terminates and in the App Output Window I can read "Debugging has finished".
Any Idea what might be the reason?

Hi
Did you upgrade Qt or anything like that ?
Try to clean build folder, and delete the .pro.user file
and select mingw again and see.

HoMa

Thank you for your attention and advice. Actually I forgot to mention, that there are rare cases, where it works.
But I tried what you said and deleted the build folders and users files - but it stays the same.

Hi
Ok. i seen this happen if Qt was upgraded on one used the old .pro.user file.
Does this happen in any project ?
Is it unly run to end that end this way ?
Single step etc works ?

HoMa

I work with QTC now for a year or so - I had some updates, yes.
I have seen it in different projects (well - I hand not too many - a big one and a couple of test programs)
This is a hard exit - it does not run to end. Single step and step into works fine.

Thx for asking.

Hmm that is pretty odd.
And you tried reinstalling ?

Hi,

In the same ideas, what is your version of Qt Creator ? If the latest you can try to use an earlier version.

HoMa

I am on Qt Creator 4.13.0, just recently updated. I guess this was the first update since last install...

But thinking back - I observed that with older verstions too in the last month.

Thx and best regards

Hi @HoMa,

may I ask which Debugger backend that is?

You may want to have a look in the Debugger Log: View (Window in older Creator releases) > Views > Debugger Log. It might give some more insight what's going wrong.

Sorry for the late reply. I did a reinstall and with this a switch to msvc. Now it works. I was on mingw before.
Best regards
