    Description

      Hi,

      We're using The Qt VS Tools to convert some of our projects that use (a lot of) moc'ing to be parallel. This works great in Visual Studio 2017!

      But.. It's a manual task to convert the projects. (right mouse button on the project -> Convert custom build steps to Qt/MSBuild). Now, we do have a bit of a special case here. As the way we use Qt in visual studio is to convert .pro projects to vxcproj using qmake (at this point the custom build steps are serial, not parallel). We do not commit the vcxproj files in our repository hence we loose the parallel generated part as that is generated every time.

      I'm asking for "a way" to generate a vcxproj from a .pro with parallel moc'ing that can be called from the command line. Perhaps in QMake when "-tp vc" is provided?

      Cheers,
      Mark
