<![CDATA[[HowTo] Show Debug symbols with ndk-stack and QtAndroid on crash]]>Steps to show debug lines for a NDK C code project:

  • enable Debug in your CMake project or in QtCreator
  • deploy to Android
  • locate your NDK install path containing the ndk-stack binary or start script
  • locate your BUILD_PATH containing your libproject-abiXXX.so or likewise named binary objects
    That could be in build/Qt_6_11_1_f_r_Android_arm64_v8a_Debug/ for a QtCreator project.
  • let your project crash
  • call on Unix in a command line (assuming one single device connection):
logcat=logcat.txt
adb logcat -d > $logcat
$NDK/ndk-stack -sym $BUILD_PATH -dump $logcat
  • ndk-stack greps the crashes and prints them with resolved code line numbers for you

Do I get correctly that you are giving instructions on how to show these debug symbols ?

If that is indeed the case, then I would recommend to change the title to something like [HowTo] Show Debug... so that it tells people that there are instructions rather than a question and use the "Topic Tools" button to make it a "Normal Topic" because otherwise it will look like an unanswered question rather than a helpful howto.
