    Description

      1/ Create a C++/Qt application project for Android with at least one dynamically linked library next to the main app module
      2/ compile this project in debug mode and deploy it to an AVD or a 'real' device using QtCreator "debug run" button
      3/ Set some breakpoint inside both main module and dynamic library module source code
      => GDB succesfully breaks at main module breakpoints but not for those from inside my dynamic library module

      This is due to an incomplete 'set solib-search-path' inside gdb session (Which lack the path to my additional module binary):

      set solib-search-path /home/myaccount/myproject/build-myproject_for_arm_GCC_4_6_Qt_5_1_1-Debug/mainmodule
      :/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/platforms/android
      :/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/lib
      :/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/generic
      :/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/imports/Qt/labs/shaders:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/imageformats:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/sensorgestures:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/imports/Qt/labs/gestures:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/accessible:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/qml1tooling:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/qmltooling:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/sqldrivers:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/imports/Qt/labs/particles:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/sensors:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/bearer:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/platforms:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/playlistformats:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/mediaservice:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/iconengines:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/imports/Qt/labs/folderlistmodel
      

      If I manually correct this commands inside QtCreator gdb session windows, by simply adding the path to my additional dynamic library (like this) :

      set solib-search-path /home/myaccount/myproject/build-myproject_for_arm_GCC_4_6_Qt_5_1_1-Debug/mainmodule
      :/home/myaccount/myproject/build-myproject_for_arm_GCC_4_6_Qt_5_1_1-Debug/additionnalmodule
      :/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/platforms/android
      :/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/lib
      :/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/generic
      :/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/imports/Qt/labs/shaders:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/imageformats:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/sensorgestures:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/imports/Qt/labs/gestures:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/accessible:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/qml1tooling:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/qmltooling:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/sqldrivers:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/imports/Qt/labs/particles:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/sensors:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/bearer:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/platforms:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/playlistformats:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/mediaservice:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/plugins/iconengines:/opt/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/android_armv7/imports/Qt/labs/folderlistmodel
      

      And if I re-set manually my breakpoints located inside my additional dynamic library source code:

      -break-insert -f "\"additionalmodule.cpp\":15"

      Then gdb normally breaks at them
