[Development] Visual Studio generator "autogen"

I appreciate it.

Thanks.  On a separate note, is there a "non-cmake" set of documents on what needs to happen from a MOC point of view, on a header that is for a designer plugin?

I have not been able to replicate the recipe successfully at all.  While I love cmake, and love the effort the trolls have put into making Qt cmake based, Ive had many clients (as well as my own projects) where qt is a small portion of the overall project.  It might be the Ui for a system interface, where the system is a couple hundred thousand lines of code.  All built with cmake, but adding the qt cmake modules adds overhead to the build process that just isn’t necessary.

Thanks, I've created
