That's not true. Visual Studio displays output from OutputDebugString in 
its debug output pane. The stderr/stdout output is printed to the 
console window that gets opened when you run your console application.
The output is separated and that makes perfect sense. Qt Creator could 
have a separate output pane for OutputDebugString and we're good.

BTW QTestLib did log to both until 5.2.1.
