Unlike VSCode, *Qt Creator* provides a very easy interface to attach GDB to +the Python interpreter. It saves you from doing all the extra configuration +steps, that have to be done with VSCode. + +Here are the steps: + +1. Set a breakpoint on the C++ code. + +2. Go to Projects -> Run -> Run Configuration -> Add. This is going to open a + new window shown below. + + .. image:: custom_executable_create.png + :alt: creation of custom executable + :align: center + +3. Click on Custom Executable and `Create` a new configuration. Feed in the + details like shown below. + + .. image:: custom_executable_run_config.png + :alt: run configuration of custom executable + :align: center + +4. Debug -> Start Debugging -> Start Debugging Without Deployment. + + .. image:: start_debugging_without_deployment.png + :alt: start debugging without deployment + :align: center + +You will now hit you breakpoint and can start debugging your code. + +.. image:: breakpoint_cpp.png + :alt: breakpoint cpp + :align: center + |
