Hello, We have some instructions in the Qt Creator Manual here:
· http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-debugger-engines.html#installing-native-debuggers · http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-debugger-engines.html#setting-cdb-paths-on-windows Did you find those sections and is there some additional information you would like to have added to the Manual? Cheers, Leena From: Qt-creator [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bob Self Sent: Montag, 5.

I had concluded that it had something to do with Microsoft's symbol server. Using tcpdump I could see that it was doing things. So, I shut down that day to think about it. The next day I tested it again and there was no delay. My internet connection was fast on both days. So, I think that the problem is resolved. I did not know that you can turn on the debugger log. I'll do that if this happens again. I also tried to store the symbols locally, but not sure that I've done that correctly. I do see my symbols in the directory specified and Qt's symbols, but no Microsoft symbol files. thanks, Bob On Mon, Sep 5, 2016 at 2:09 AM, David Schulz <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi Bob, could you paste the content of the debugger log ( Window -> Views -> Debugger Log ) at http://creator.pastebin.com. Please also enable the verbose option in the context menu of the log. I guess the delay is caused by a symbol server. CDB might want to collect the symbols of the rebuild modules from there which can take some time. All relevant information should be in the log mentioned above.

Now it seems to take about 25 seconds to step into the first line in main(). I did make a difference (much less than 2 minutes). But I remember it being almost instantaneous a few days ago. If I re-debug without doing a rebuild it is still 'instantaneous'.
