Training: Debugging and Profiling Qt applications on Linux

Note: this is the same training as the one given by Milian in 2020

This training is kindly provided by KDAB and will be conducted online by David Faure.

Link to participate in training online: TBD

Room at the University to join with others: TBD

Schedule
11:00-13:00 CEST	Part 1 - Debugging on Linux
13:00-15:00 CEST	Lunch break
15:00-17:00 CEST	Part 2 - Profiling on Linux

Details

Get up-to-speed with the latest Linux Qt debugging and performance tools

This training gives an introduction to various tools which help developers and testers in finding bugs and performance issues.

The tools presented cover a wide range of problems, from general purpose debugging and CPU profiling to Linux specific high-level analyzers. Often, it is relatively simple to run a tool, but interpreting the results, or even just using some of the more advanced tools, requires deep technical knowledge.

Prerequisite

Knowledge and experience programming with Qt and C++. Basic understanding of multithreaded programming.

We will cover what I consider the most essential debugging and profiling tools on Linux. I'll show you how to use the tools, how to interpret the results. We will talk about problems you may run into during setup. And we will discuss optimizations for certain types of code patterns.

Topics include:

sanitizers ASAN/UBSAN/TSAN
linux perf, hotspot
heaptrack
