Not with the standard tools. A Qt release build builds with -g1 instead of -g, which should be sufficient for backtraces but not for debugging. But you can't strip the info once created. So you will have big debug symbols if you build with either -debug or with -release -force-debug-info. You need a specialised stripper tool. I remember some colleagues had proposed to do that for Clear Linux, but I don't know if they actually accomplished it. I can ask in the new year, if you remind me. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
