[Qt-creator] On windows QtCreator 2.7 does not load local & expressions data automatically

[Abir Basak]

I was using Qt Creator 2.7 on Windows 7. When I try to debug an
application, Qt Creator does not automatically load Locals & Expressions or
the Stack etc automatically, which it used to load on 2.6.2.
The same problem persists for the snapshots also (Tested on 9th May
Snapshot)
The reason seems, 2.7.0 never inserts the bb command to load current stack,
while 2.6.2 does.
Also it does not automatically update the stack or locals as I step through
the debugger. The reason is same as bb command is not called (it just calls
exec-next), and I need to manually reload stack frame after every step.
Is anyone else facing same problem? What could be the reason for such
behavour?

NOTE:  I am using mingw -w64 build gcc 2.7.2 win32 version from mingw-w64
project (build by rubenvb) for all versions of QtCreator, Which has a gdb
7.5.50

Below are the Debugger Log for 2.6.2 and 2.7 Version respectively


Thanks
