OS: Windows 7 64bit SP1 (Note: need to have .Net 4 installed)

SDK: Windows SDK 7.1 x86_64 (Note: remember to have “Visual C++ Compilers” and “Debugging Tools for Windows” installed)

Qt Creator: Qt Creator 2.6.2 in qt-windows-opensource-5.0.1-msvc2010_32-x86-offline-2013-01-30-426.exe (Note: I am testing 5.0.1 daily build packages, 5.0.0 release doesn’t ship with .pdb files)

Qt Creator 2.6.2 could detect the compiler and cdb correctly from above environments after installed. What you need to do are only two things:

1. Tools->Options->Debugger->CDB, In the Symbol paths field, open the Insert menu and select Symbol Server, just use default value and click OK
2. Tools->Options->Debugger->General, in Source Paths Mapping part, click Add, set Source path field to q:\qt5_workdir\w\s and Target path field to C:\Qt\Qt5.0.1\5.0.1\Src

Then you can debug into Qt library in your applications.
