    \title Debug CMake project files

    With the \QC implementation of the
    \l {https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/}
    {Debug Adapter Protocol (DAP)}, you can debug CMake project files.

    \note You need CMake 3.27 or later for DAP.

    To debug CMake project files:

    \list 1
        \li In the \uicontrol Edit mode, set breakpoints in a CMake file.
        \li Go to \uicontrol Debug > \uicontrol {Start Debugging} >
            \uicontrol {Start CMake Debugging}.
            \image qtcreator-debugger-cmake.webp {DAP CMake Preset view in the Debug mode}
    \endlist

    When the application stops at a breakpoint, you can examine data in the
    \uicontrol Debug mode views.
