How to convert a regular win32 (VC++ vcproj) project to a Qt project?

Question

How can I convert existing vcproj files to project files that the QT add-in to Visual Studio recognizes and treats as valid Qt projects?

Should I just bite the bull

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion. I have passed it on to our developers who will consider implementing it for a future release. You can track it using the following link:

Original question

We have quite a few legacy vcproj projects that we wish to add Qt to it. Currently, we don't have an easy way to convert these legacy vcproj files into a Qt-enabled vcproj.

What do I mean by Qt-enabled?

On a non-Qt-enabled vcproj, when I right click on the project name under Solution Explorer, all options related to Qt are all grayed-out.

It would be really useful if Nokia adds this capability to VSTD Add-in.
