The discussion was about how detecting which files in a Qt project
require calling MOC on them before compiling.
Such cpp files are hundred percent c++ files from the compiler's point
of view. However those files are actually not exactly cpp files. They
have some additional information for moc "secretly" encoded in c++.
I don't think this is a bad thing ( I actually like MOC ) but would it
not make sense to give those files a different file name ending?
If there is a strong argument for this different file name ending ( not
just from the point of view of build2 ) then the Qt team may even adopt
this.
