I'd like to confirm that on Linux (I'm on Kubuntu 10.04 64 bit) Qt Creator and out of the box gdb are very stable. I do enjoy using Qt Creator a lot, definitely beats Eclipse in my opinion. Even though my commercial work currently targets Windows and Symbian, I do most of my development, including debugging on Linux. Only for deployment and occasional on-device debugging I use WinXP inside a VirtualBox. That may sound cumbersome, but actually is not. For me making a windows version takes just these steps: On linux: tar czf ~/shared/myprog.tgz myprog Move to VirtualBox window with Qt command prompt open: tar xzf x:/myprog.tgz # [1] cd myprog qmake && make [1] I've mapped X to a ~/shared folder what virtualbox shares from host Just my 2 cents.. -- Grego http://mpaja.com/ _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
