[QBS] Regression with Qbs 1.6 and Bullseye Coverage

Yes, we've been using it for about a year now (I think since QtCreator 3.6).

Interestingly, if doing it all manually (without QtCreator) it seems to work.

>>> qbs --version
1.6.0

>>> qbs config --settings-dir c:\tmp\qbs16 --list

>>> qbs setup-toolchains --settings-dir c:\tmp\qbs16 --type msvc c:\programs\mvs12\vc\bin\cl.exe mvs12
Setting up profile 'mvs12'.
Profile 'mvs12' created for 'C:\programs\mvs12\vc\bin\cl.exe'.

>>> qbs config --settings-dir c:\tmp\qbs16 --list
profiles.mvs12.cpp.compilerVersionMajor: "18"
profiles.mvs12.cpp.toolchainInstallPath: "C:/programs/mvs12/vc/bin"
profiles.mvs12.qbs.architecture: "x86"
profiles.mvs12.qbs.targetOS: "windows"
profiles.mvs12.qbs.toolchain: "msvc"

>>> qbs build --file c:\tmp\demo.qbs --settings-dir c:\tmp\qbs15 debug profile:mvs12
No build graph exists yet for this configuration.

In QtCreator with a similar kit however, opening the same project results in the error message from MsvcProbe.

So I assume the problem is more related to QtCreator?

Should it be created in Qbs or QtCreator project?

Thanks,
