Hi Eike, > src/plugins/debugger/gdb/gdbengine.cpp
thank you for pointing this out. I'll take a look to have a better idea. > But the gdb engine used GDB/MI mode > (http://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI.html) where > -exec-arguments is correct (see "GDB/MI Program Context” section). I see. I'm not familiar with GDB/MI mode so that could be the right approach then, but the end result at least for me is that the arguments don't reach the remote program under debug, and the debug session crashes as I'm attempting to debug the Qt app with XCB platform plugin (X forwarding) Pablo _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/qt-creator
