Running Valgrind Tools Remotely

Qt Creator integrates Valgrind code analysis tools for detecting memory leaks and profiling function execution. These tools are supported locally only on Linux and Mac OS, but you can run them on a remote host from Windows.

To run the Valgrind tools on a remote host over SSH:

  1. Select Analyze > Valgrind Analyze Memory (Remote) or Valgrind Function Profile (Remote).

    "Start Debugger dialog"

  2. In the Remote group, specify the connection to the remote host.
  3. In the Target group, specify the application to run and analyze on the remote host.
