How to build an imported code in debug?
-
Hi,
I am trying to import an existing project(simple main.cpp) in Qt Creator for debugging purpose.
But when I start debugging, it will not stop at my break points. I checked on the project build settings but I don't see either debug or release mode.Please advise what are the configurations needed?
Details of the environment:
- Ubuntu 16.04
- Qt Creator 3.5.1
- Qt 5.5.1
Thanks!

@justABeginer How did you import the project? Do you use qmake to build it?
In project settings you can add debug/release configurations under "Build Settings". -
Hi @jsulm
I imported it with File > New File or Project > Import Project > Import Existing Project.
Then it created .config .file and .includes files.
