debug versions of plugins
Message 1 in thread
Greetings,
For some time now it seems that you are not able to load debug versions of
plugins into a Qt application. This is annoying because it is hard to use
release versions of applications in gdb. Has trolltech taken any steps
towards making it possible to use plugins when your application is compiled
in debug mode?
thx

Hi. This should be fixed in 4.2.2 (They promised :) ) but the fix is very
simple..
In src/corelib/plugin/qlibrary.cpp, after this part: (around line 46 or so...)
Add the following lines...
#if defined(Q_OS_UNIX) && !defined(Q_OS_MAC)
#define QT_NO_DEBUG_PLUGIN_CHECK
#endif
Its bit of a hack (Load them, regardless of the version) but it works for me..
Maybe for you too.
Kind regards
