Hi,

I'm struggling the whole day with this problem. Is there a way to debug a
shared library not included to a project? In particular I'd like to see
what's happening in nemomobile-qml-plugin-contacts-qt5.

I have the following sample code being executed in Sailfish Emulator:

import org.nemomobile.contacts 1.0

// ...

PeopleModel {
    id: people
}

// ...

var p = people.personByPhoneNumber('somephonenumber');

I'm putting a break point on people.personByPhoneNumber() call and try to
step in, and it doesn't work.

Prior to trying to step into the library code I've installed both
nemomobile-qml-plugin-contacts-qt5-debuginfo and
nemomobile-qml-plugin-contacts-qt5-debugsource to i486 target using Qt
Creator's SailfishOS tab. After that stepping in didn't work. Then I pushed
the 'sync' button  a couple of times to make sure it worked but it didn't.

Then I've logged into the build machine and installed these packages using
zypper. Pushed the 'sync' button in Qt Creator but stepping in still didn't
work. Interesting thing is though that the packages were installed as if
there were no packages installed using Qt Creator.

I've looked into gdb output and saw that it sets substitute-path

SailfishOS/mersdk/targets/SailfishOS-i486/usr/src for /usr/src. I didn't
have anything in SailfishOS/mersdk/targets/SailfishOS-i486/usr/src, in
fact, I didn't have the src directory at all. It seems like the packages
I've installed in the build machine were not synchonised with my host
machine. I've done it with scp transfer but stepping in still doesn't work.


Could anyone please give me some hints on debugging external libraries or
guide me to any resource explaining the process?


Thanks.


Cheers
