    Description

      Compile the following program:

      int main() {
          int * a = 0;
          *a = 3;
          return 0;
      }
      

      with

      clang++ -O0 -g main.cpp
      

      enable core files with

       ulimit -c unlimited 

      and run program with

      ./a.out
      

      a core file is generated in the /cores/core.xxxx.

      Opening it with lldb works:

      lldb ./a.out -c /cores/core.71941                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              139 ↵

      Loading the core file with Creator via Debug -> Start Debugging -> Load Core file menu does not work properly. It seems like a debug session is started, and you can run lldb commands in the top-left corner, like "frame variables" or "bt", and you get proper results.
      But the backtrace and locals view of Creator are empty.
