    Hello,

    PC with the Ubuntu on the Virtual Box is used as a host. Raspberry Pi is used as a target device.

    Is it possible remotely debug (using SSH and the possibilities of the QT Creator) a application with a GUI (Graphical User Interface) loaded on the Respberry Pi using the QT Creator?

        @SGaist Hello,

        Thank you for you reply. I have studied this documentation.

        I saw that I can use the X11 forwarding. Can I use the phisical monitor on the Respberry Pi and interact with the GUI using a mouse and keyboard? At the same time, will remote debugging (set breakpoints, inspect variables, and step through code) via the gdbserver in QT Creator still be available?

          @Nikolay-Levun We don't use Raspberry (Toradex Apalis instead) but doing exactly what you described: local front panel operation, display and remote debugging from Qt Creator.

          So that should be working.

          Regards

          Qt has to stay free or it will die.
