When working with applications built using the QtCreator IDE (using the MingW compiler) you must ensure that your application is built with debugging information.

 

 

Enabling debugging information

 

QtCreator by default uses the STABS debugging format which Performance Validator understands.

 

Debugging information must be enabled for debug builds and for release builds.
