[Qt-creator] Latest 3.6.0-rc1 & Debugging on OS X

I should have noted that I am running OS X 10.10.5 and Xcode 6.4. I have no idea if I can move up to Xcode 7.x and still use Qt 5.5? We have to self compile due to our requirement for C++11 support.

Also note that my tests are quick and dirty. Just quick “does it launch quickly when compared to Xcode”.

Thanks
Mike Jackson

I have switched back to the QtCreator code model and the completion speed and quality is very close to the likes of Visual Studio and Xcode. Keep up the great work.

One of the nightlies from mid-last week would start up but would just spin LLDB at 100% indefinitely and never seem to come back with the locals and stack when attempting to stop at a break point.
