[qt creator] go to source files by F4 shortcut

silverq

How can I install Qt Source cpp files and tell Qt Creator to open this source file when I do ctrl+click on some method or by F4 shortcut?

e.g. for:

QFile myFile("a.txt");
myFile.exi|sts(); // F4 at | char

I have installed Sources:

In Qt dir was of course created e:\Qt\5.9.1\Src\ folder which contains source files, how to tell Qt Creator to take into account this files?

Thank you for any suggestions and advices.

QtCreator settings -> Debugger -> General -> Source Paths Mapping

I have tried many combination of paths, but still without success, I can't go to the source cpp files by F4 or ctrl+left click.

Paths on the picture was added automatically when I clicked Add Qt sources... button, I tried with this paths too.

I tried this source paths:

e:\Qt\Qt5.9.1\5.9.1\msvc2015_64\bin\
e:\Qt\Qt5.9.1\5.9.1\msvc2015_64\

And this target paths:

e:\Qt\Qt5.9.1\5.9.1\Src\
e:\Qt\Qt5.9.1\5.9.1\Src\qtbase\
e:\c\build-qt_test-Desktop_Qt_5_9_1_MSVC2015_64bit-Debug\

The last one is my example project.

And even vice versa :/

Source paths:

e:\Qt\Qt5.9.1\5.9.1\Src\
e:\Qt\Qt5.9.1\5.9.1\Src\qtbase\

Target paths:

e:\Qt\Qt5.9.1\5.9.1\msvc2015_64\

Without success.

Only one solution which I found and works, is to compile qt myself, like:

configure -debug -nomake examples -nomake tests -opensource -confirm-license -platform win32-msvc2015 -developer-build

When I use this kit, so F4 shortcut works as expected and even Step Into (F11) to qt sources during debugging works too.

But I don't want to recompile qt for every new version.

Did I Miss something?

So it doesn't work even with developer-build :/, so recompile myself didn't help, still any solution.
