Directly Interacting with Native Debuggers
In some cases, it is convenient to directly interact with the command line of the native debugger. In Qt Creator, you can use the left pane of the Debugger Log view for that purpose. When you press Ctrl+Enter, the contents of the line under the text cursor are sent directly to the native debugger. Alternatively, you can use the line edit at the bottom of the view. Output is displayed in the right pane of the Debugger Log view.
Note: Usually, you do not need this feature because Qt Creator offers better ways to handle the task. For example, instead of using the GDB print
command from the command line, you can evaluate an expression in the Expressions view.
