I finally tried downloading the "Windows 8 SDK" which runs on Windows 7x64 (which is what I am on) and that seemed to install the debuggers. Now my "Kit" automatically picked up those debuggers. Now lets see if I can actually debug my project.

My project is managed with CMake instead of QMake and I was curious if anyone else is using this combination and could give some pointers on how to setup the environment to use QtCreator in this way? What generator do I use? What kind of env vars need to be setup ahead of time. Stuff like that.
