I said gcc 10 earlier, but I meant to say clang 11. But I also see it in 
clang 14, and in VS 2019 (17.5.1 - latest).

It seems to be related to #including the moc output in the cpp file.


Here's a minimal example:

Header file:

#pragma once

#include <QObject>
#include <QString>

namespace TServer
{

	class Test : public QObject
	{
		Q_OBJECT

	private:
		void test();

	signals:
		void databaseOpened(QString schoolCode);
		void databaseEvent(QString schoolCode, QString notification);
		void databaseRemoved(QString schoolCode, QString dbFilename);
	};

}


Source file:

#include "server_database2.h"
#include <moc_server_database2.cpp>

#include <QDebug>


void TServer::Test::test()
{
	qDebug() << QStringList{};
}
