    The binary downloads of Qt for Mac do not include any debugging info. The “debug” version of the downloads do. But Nokia forgot to include the source files so it doesn’t help you either. Here’s a bug reported on this issue: http://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-8433

    The only way to step into (most) Qt source files on Mac is to download the source files package and build it yourself. Even that doesn’t work out of the box (if you can call it that). The installed directory is missing the ‘src‘ sub-directory which is where all Qt source files need to go. The solution is to create a symbolic link to the ‘src‘ directory in your build directory.

    Even that doesn’t work 100% of the time. I still run into Qt functions that I can’t step into. But that’s rare after all the mocking.
