GDB Debugging helper
-
Initiating remote debugging on an embedded device in Qt Creator 2.0 only partially works. I get an error that the debugging helper is missing saying that "the debugging helper library was not found at ." I have my Qt Embedded build version selected, and I can seem to build the Debugging Helper, the field then indicates a green check, but the debug mode can't seem to find it. Any suggestions for where look to diagnose this further?
The GDB trace seems to assume a python enabled gdb, is this assumed when the debugging helper doesn't load, or is a python-enabled gdb required for remote debug? I'd like to try an avoid rebuilding my toolchain provided gdb.

In some cases extra functionality like the python enabled debugging could be installable as a separate package, like a plug-in or module. You could check for that with your distro.

I bypassed it and am just using gdb command line with some hand setup for solib paths in the init. This gdb (6.6) is pre-python scripting I think, so it wouldn't be a plugin option...
Now to debug the crashes in the basic examples on my arm system.
