It's the GDB 7.7's demangler that crashes on certain symbols created by GCC from some C++11 code, see e.g. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16957 https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=61233 and others. The crash is already triggered when a binary containing certain symbols is loaded, already without any attempt to run something. GDB 7.6 is a more robust choice in this respect, but this version suffers from some performance issues (see e.g. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15412), but is a better choice in this case. I can't say anything aboout 7.8 yet. Andre' _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
