    Description

      After carefully inspecting the XML code, I am quite sure this is some sort of a bug. I have an UI file which promotes it's widgets to custom classes. This is done manually in QtDesigner and the relevant XML it produces looks like this:

      main.ui
       <customwidgets>
        <customwidget>
         <class>DataPoint</class>
         <extends>QWidget</extends>
         <header>../datapoint.h</header>
         <container>1</container>
        </customwidget>
        <customwidget>
         <class>DataPointForm</class>
         <extends>QWidget</extends>
         <header>../datapointform.h</header>
         <container>1</container>
        </customwidget>
       </customwidgets>
      

      But the C++ header code then looks like this:

      ui_main.h
      #include "../datapointform.h"
      #include <QtCore/QVariant>
      #include <QtWidgets/QAction>
      #include <QtWidgets/QApplication>
      #include <QtWidgets/QButtonGroup>
      #include <QtWidgets/QFormLayout>
      #include <QtWidgets/QHeaderView>
      #include <QtWidgets/QLabel>
      #include <QtWidgets/QMainWindow>
      #include <QtWidgets/QPushButton>
      #include <QtWidgets/QVBoxLayout>
      #include <QtWidgets/QWidget>
      #include "../datapoint.h"
      

      You can see that despite the fact both datapoint.h and datapointform.h are defined same way in the XML, they are included differently in C++.

      Unless uic has some sort of cache, this is a weird bug. I added both the input and output to the attachment for verification.
