[Qt-creator] How to extract VC-like project list?

[dydx]

Hi all,

The email had some coding problems and was hard to be read, so ‍‍‍I'd better send another one.

I found the projects in Qt creator can be organized into a  tree structure, but actually there are two kinds of "project" here, one corresponding a "build target" and the other just a  folder. For example, in the following image, "test1" and "test2" are the  first kind, because you can compile them and get two .exe files, and  "test" is just a folder, you can add a "real project" or another folder  under it.
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I think these two kinds of projects are  different but one can hardly distinguish them  because their icons are the same.  I think this is not so good.

Now  what I want to do is to extract all "real projects" (projects  corresponding a build target) from the project tree and make a VC-like  project list, just as the following picture:‍
‍‍‍‍‍‍

I found  there is a hasBuildTargets() function in ProjectExplorer::ProjectNode.  So, I want to traverse the project tree and check this function, then  throw the valid ones into a list. Is it right?

Another thing I  want to do is to detect "project dependencies". For example, if project  A  generates a .lib file and project B uses that file to generate a  .exe, then I call project B "depends" project A.  How can I get these  relationships? Do I have to parse .pro file myself?

Best regards,
dydx
