using moc with cmake

[Isaac]

I am creating a project that uses Qt 4.3.3 and Qwt 5.1.1 (http://qwt.sourceforge.net/).
I am using CMake version 2.4 to generate the project files for MS Visual Studio 2005 Pro (on Windows XP Pro)

I create a derived class ScatterPlot that inherits from QwtPlot and QObject.
I run into a linking error when I use the Q_OBJECT macro in my derived class as shown in attached files.

The moc_scatterplot.cxx and the moc_scatterplot.obj files are created during compilation.
If I remove the Q_OBJECT macro from the header, it compiles fine.

What am I missing? Thanks, Isaac

Do you link your application with Qwt?

Sorry, I forget the most important file.
I did link with Qwt.
Here is my CMakeLists.txt:

# set project's name
PROJECT( ThreeSpaceViewer )

OPTION(MYPROJECT_DEBUG
"Build the project using debugging code"
ON)

# this command finds Qt4 libraries and sets all required variables
# note that it's Qt4, not QT4 or qt4

FIND_PACKAGE(Qt4)
IF(QT4_FOUND)
# (QT_USE_FILE is a variable defined by FIND_PACKAGE( Qt4 )
# that contains a path to CMake script)
INCLUDE( ${QT_USE_FILE} )
ELSE(QT4_FOUND)
MESSAGE(FATAL_ERROR
"Cannot build without Qt4. Please set Qt4_DIR.")
ENDIF(QT4_FOUND)


SET(QWT_FOUND "NO")

IF(QT4_FOUND)
FIND_PATH(
QWT_INCLUDE_DIR qwt.h
C:/Qt
C:/Qt/Qwt
C:/Qt/Qwt/src
)

SET(QWT_DEBUG_NAMES qwtd5 )
SET(QWT_RELEASE_NAMES qwtr5 )

FIND_LIBRARY( QWT_DEBUG_LIBRARY
NAMES ${QWT_DEBUG_NAMES}
PATHS /Qt /Qt/Qwt /Qt/Qwt/lib
)

FIND_LIBRARY( QWT_RELEASE_LIBRARY

)

IF (QWT_DEBUG_LIBRARY OR QWT_RELEASE_LIBRARY)
IF (MYPROJECT_DEBUG)
SET(QWT_LIBRARIES ${QWT_DEBUG_LIBRARY})
SET(QWT_FOUND "YES")
ELSE (MYPROJECT_DEBUG)
SET(QWT_LIBRARIES ${QWT_RELEASE_LIBRARY})
SET(QWT_FOUND "YES")
ENDIF (MYPROJECT_DEBUG)

SET( MY_SRCS

SET( MY_HDRS
