      Qt Creator looses editing functionality such as prediction and highlighting when the following line is added to .pro. 

      QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -D MODULE_NAME=\\\"$${TARGET}$${MY_MODULE}\\\"

      Also Qt Creator shows Issues

      and warnings.

      No highliging in mainwindow.cpp

      How to reproduce :
      Use Qt Application example and add the following to .pro and then Run qmake 

      QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -D MODULE_NAME=\\\"$${TARGET}$${MY_MODULE}\\\"
