Cannot get valgrind to work in Qt Creator 4.0.1 on OS X 10.11.5
Unsolved
Qt Creator and other tools
-
I need to profile my Qt project and I cannot get valgrind to work. It always crashes shortly after I pick Analyze > Valgrind Function Profiler.
My copy of valgrind was installed using homebrew and is version 3.11.0. I am using Qt Creator 4.0.1.
Truthfully, valgrind has never worked for me in Qt Creator. But I was hoping that version 4 would fix whatever issue was plaguing me.
Here is the output I get in Qt Creator when I attempt to use it:

Note: see also the FAQ in the source distribution. It contains workarounds to several common problems. In particular, if Valgrind aborted or crashed after identifying problems in your program, there's a good chance that fixing those problems will prevent Valgrind aborting or crashing, especially if it happened in m_mallocfree.c. If that doesn't help, please report this bug to: www.valgrind.org In the bug report, send all the above text, the valgrind version, and what OS and version you are using. Thanks. Analyzing finished. ** Unknown error **What can I do to fix this?
