Breakpoints in files are being ignored by the debugger. I have looked through half a dozen threads where users post similar problems, but as far as I can tell mine is different.

My projects are plain C++ projects. I am using the default flags for the debug mode- there aren't any optimizations.

Build configuration: "Qt 4.8.1 for Desktop - MinGW (Qt SDK) debug"
Tool chain: Mingw as a GCC for Windows targets
Shadow build on

My platform is Windows 7 Home Premium.

Thanks in advance
