[Qt-creator] Problems console application and Q_OBJECT

[Ladnar, Marc]

Hi Petric,

it is a common Qt qmake problem.
Qmake is not called until the .pro has not changed. But qmake is the 
tool generating the Makefile commands for moc compiling.
So you will have to do it in QtCreator like as in Qt itself. I think 
there will be no patch for QtCreator to solve this problem because it is 
located in qmake and Makefile.
It could only be solved when in Makefile the qmake command not only gets 
called when the .pro file changed but when every project header changed, 
too. On bigger projects this will get very annoying.
The programmer himself does know when to run qmake again because he 
added the Q_OBJECT macro into his header.

Hope that makes it a little clearer to you.

Have a nice day,

Marc

Ok, good to know.

Hopefully there is already a fix in the repository for it.
