\QC is integrated with the GDB and GDB server that are delivered with the

Android devices support debugging multi-thread applications in version

\section2 Selecting API Level
In the \gui {Android target SDK} field, you can select the API level to use
for building the application. Usually, you should select the newest API
level available.
This field does not specify the minimum supported API level nor the target
API level, which you can specify in the Android manifest file.

{What is API Level?}.
\section2 Selecting Qt Libraries
In the \gui Libraries group, specify which Qt libraries the application uses.
To automatically determine this, select \gui {Read Information from
Application (Must Be Compiled)}. Alternatively, you can manually select the
Qt libraries and the external libraries you think your application needs.
Make sure to arrange the libraries so that depended libraries appear before
the ones that depend on them.
These entries are used by the Ministro tool to determine which Qt libraries
to download.
In addition, the Java Loader uses this list to determine which Qt Libraries
and other prebundled libraries to load with your application.
\section2 Signing Android Packages
In the \gui {Sign Package} group you can sign the Android package by using
a private key from the keystore. To create new keys, select \gui Create.
