Invoking MOC w/MSVS + Qt Visual Integration

[andersi]

HI!

I saw this question which did not seem to have been closed. I was searching for the same problem after a re-install after win crash. I have Visual .net 2003 and qt4.3.2 and the vs-integration 1.3.2

I added a *.h with a QOBJECT and no moc stage was created.

in previous version of the VS integration there was a moc button but no more. But as I found somewhere out there this is the trick:

Actually so easy, just open the *.h file edit it (add a space for example) and save, then like magic the moc stage is there.

The sequence to get auto moc support is finicky but it does work if you add the .h file under Source Files by right-clicking in the solution explorer and choosing Add -> Existing Item. This must be done before the first build after the corresponding .cpp file is added. That was the mistake I made. If moc support is enabled you will see "compile" as a right-click menu item for the .h file. Also looking at the properties you will see a dependencies rule that runs moc.

I am using Qt studio add in version 1.1.5 and VS studio 2008
