I'm using Ubuntu 10.4 LTS with an updated Qt SDK. Build-essentials is the compiler suite.
QtCreator's debugging worked fine on Win7, now it doesn't seem to work at all, the breakpoints are skipped altogether.
I don't seem to get any particular error though.
Are you building your code in debug mode?
Yes, I tryed both clicking the big Start Debugging button and the little one in the Debug section, neither works.
I checked on WinXP 32bits SP3, the old QtCreator 2.2.1 works. Maybe it's a problem with the latest version.
EDIT: gdb seems to work fine with NetBeans on the Ubuntu pc
I don't mean the debug mode of creator but rather that your application needs to be built in debug mode.
I'm kinda new to debuggers. What do you mean by "build in debug mode"?
Can't I simply push a button, like I do to build it normally?

If you use Qt Creator, you need to switch build configuration from release to debug. It's in the left pane about 2/3 way from the top.
Thank you, it works now. If you happen to have a quick guide to debugging I'll be happy to have a look.
BTW I have character encoding broblems between the different platforms, how can I set QtCreator to save everything in UTF-8?
EDIT: solved, for default is Tools/Options/Text Editor/Behaviour/Default Encoding
for single files it's Place cursor inside open file -> Edit/Select Encoding
IMHO the default encoding should be UTF-8.
Added after 1 4 minutes:
Damn, I just updated my windows version and now I have new problems!
I'm creating a Qt Shell Application, but after the update, no shell shows up anymore!
MinGW got updated in the process, but it seems I'm still using Qt 4.7.3.
EDIT: solved, Projects/Run Settings/Run in terminal
