    Description

      Adding files to cmake projects has been discussed multiple times (e.g. QTCREATORBUG-19962) but the way it is currently handled is cumbersome (and confusing to new users).

      My suggestion is to use placeholder comments (similar to AndroidManifest.xml and - I think - also Info.plist files), for instance:

      qt_add_executable(camera
    MANUAL_FINALIZATION
    main.cpp
    #%%SOURCE_FILES%%
    #%%HEADER_FILES%%
)

      which is then replaced by Qt Creator when adding "MainWindow" class to:

      qt_add_executable(camera
    MANUAL_FINALIZATION
    main.cpp
    mainwindow.cpp
    #%%SOURCE_FILES%%
    mainwindow.h
    #%%HEADER_FILES%%
)
