Hi,

I am in the process of creating a nice mingw(-w64) toolchain, and
would like to integrate a python-enabled gdb for use with Qt Creator.

I am experiencing trouble, because what Qt Creator expects, and what
your nice wiki article here:
http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/QtCreatorBuildGdb

describes diverge. I detest the forced directory layout in QtCreator
code (gdbengine.cpp, search for "winPythonVersion"). Perhaps this
isn't the best place to discuss this issue, so I have already created
a bug report. The fix seems trivial, but I am not well versed in QDir
API.

The bug report is here:
http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTCREATORBUG-4870

and simply suggests that QtCreator code
1) ups the hardcoded python version to 2.7, or use something more generic
2) searches <gdb_location>/../lib/python27 instead of
<gdb_location>/python2.5/lib for the *.py files.

Once this is fixed, all the people developing 64/32-bit windows (Qt)
apps with mingw-w64 (well, at least I will ;-) ) will have a perfect
Qt Creator experience.

Thanks!

Ruben
