Unable to run application in debug mode

[mcleary]

I am developing a multiplatform application and in Windows I'm using MSVC2015 with Qt5.6

My application is running just fine in MacOS and Linux both in Debug and Release Modes. However, on Windows I cannot run my application in Debug Mode.

When I start the debugger I get an error in the following line.
I have a class that has a static map initialized like this

static const QMap<QString, PropertyInfo> S_PROPERTY_INFO_MAP =
{
    {"objectName",          PointCloudData::tr("Objeto")},

If I leave the QMap empty I get the error

QWidget: Must construct a QApplication before a QWidget

But why my application is running in release mode without problems?

Hi, I'm guessing the reason your app works in Release mode and on the other platforms is just luck.
When doing stuff like ::tr("Hello") in static data initialization, i.e. before the QApplication is constructed in your main.cpp, what code gets run in what order is undefined in C++ and Qt is kinda confused before that QApplication is up and running. You could try filling the QMap in a for loop instead.
