    Description

      Visual Studio generator in QBS can generate VC++ project.

      However, the generated project is Makefile type not native C++ application/library project.
      You can just build and debug it which can be done in Qt Creator already nicely.
      You cannot make use of any advanced features such as profiling, testing, analysis, etc which people expect when using Visual Studio.

      As far as I know, qmake generates sane Visual Studio project and you can run analysis and profiling with it.

      If QBS could generate VC++ native application/library type project instead of Makefile type project, it would be much more useful.
