[Qt-interest] [Interest] Debugging on Linux

[Graham Labdon]

Hello again

I now have this working BUT
When I debug within QtCreator I get a dialog saying that the build appears not to be a debug build.
However, I am able to debug

Does anyone know why this dialog appears

You probably want -release for Qt, unless you plan on debugging inside Qt itself.

When building your application for debugging, you do what Andreas suggested. 
Note that Qt Creator automatically sets those options when you select a debug build.

When you're ready for release, re-run qmake with no arguments and build again. 
Or let Creator do it.
