      If I try to write signals/slots with trailing-return-type as described here(https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/function), that feature become available with C++11 standard decltype.

      signals:
          auto testSignal() -> void;
      
      public slots:
          auto testSlot() -> void;
      

      But my compilation faild, as I understand moc cannot parse this signature, and gives error like that:

      \AutoReturn\TestClass.hpp -o debug\moc_TestClass.cpp
      ..\AutoReturn\TestClass.hpp(12): Parse error at ":"
      

      You could reproduce this issue on my small example AutoReturn.zip
