# Use Qt Creator as IDE or GUI Debugger
[Qt Creator](https://www.qt.io/ide/)
([Wiki](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qt_Creator)) is a cross-platform C++ IDE.
You can use Qt Creator as a daily IDE or just as a GDB frontend and that does
not require project configuration.
[TOC]
## IDE
### Workflow
1. `ctrl+k` Activate Locator, you can open file(not support sublime-like-search)
or type `. ` go to symbol.
2. `ctrl+r` Build and Run, `F5` Debug.
3. `F4` switch between header file and cpp file.
4. `ctrl+shift+r` rename symbol under cursor.
5. Code completion is built-in. And you can add your snippets.
### Setup as IDE
1. Install latest Qt Creator
2. under chromium/src `gn gen out/Default --ide=qtcreator`
3. qtcreator out/Default/qtcreator_project/all.creator
It takes 3 minutes to parsing C++ files in my workstation!!! And It will not
block you while parsing.
#### Code Style
1. Help - About Plugins enable Beautifier.
2. Tools - Options - Beautifier - Clang Format,
change Clang format command: `$depot_tools_dir/clang-format`, select use
predefined style: file. You can also set a keyboard shortcut for it.
3. Tools - Options - Code Style import this xml file
```
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE QtCreatorCodeStyle>

<value type="QString">chrome</value>
</data>

```
#### Build & Run
In left panel, projects - setup the ninja command in build and clean step and
executable chrome path in run.
## Debugger
**You can skip the project settings and use QtCreator as a single file
standalone GDB frontend. **
1. Tools - Options - Build & Run - Debuggers, make sure GDB is set.
2. Tools - Options - Kits, change the Desktop kit to GDB(LLDB doesnot work in
Linux).
3. Open file you want to debug.
4. Debug - Start Debugging - Attach to running Application, you may need to
open chrome's task manager to find the process number.
### Tips, tricks, and troubleshooting
#### Debugger shows start then finish
```
$ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope
```
Ensure yama allow you to attach another process.
#### Debugger do not stop in break point
Ensure you are using GDB not LLDB in Linux.
