GammaRay is a software introspection and runtime manipulation tool for Qt applications developed by KDAB. It leverages QObject introspection to let developers observe and modify running Qt applications locally or remotely on embedded targets, with high-level views of frameworks like model/view, state machines, and scene graphs.
Use cases
- inspect the QObject tree of a running Qt application
- debug Qt Quick scene graphs and item trees
- edit QObject properties at runtime
- monitor and invoke signals and slots
- debug proxy model chains in model/view applications
- remotely introspect a Qt app on an embedded device
- visualize QWidget layouts and QPainter operations
When to choose
- you develop Qt applications and need domain-specific debugging beyond a regular debugger
- you need live runtime inspection or manipulation of QObjects, signals, or Qt Quick scenes
- you debug Qt apps running remotely on embedded targets
When to avoid
- your project does not use Qt
- you need instruction-level or memory-level debugging rather than framework-level introspection
