Nested folders in Qt Creator

[rockballad]

Yes, I did as you said:

- I make 3 additional directories in my current project location: Animal, Animal/Dog, Animal/Cat
- [File] > [New file or project...] > C++ > C++ class
- Add Cat class in Animal/Cat; Dog class in Animal/Dog.

I expect that the Project tree would have Animal node, with 2 subnodes Dog, Cat. Each of them has 2 subnodes: Headers, Sources
But Qt Creator doesn't support, or I did something wrong: Animal node, with 2 subnodes: Headers, Sources. Each of them has 2 subnodes: Dog, Cat. I don't like this.

It'd be clear if you take several minutes to try it yourself

Thanks for your reply!

Ok, now I get you. With the project tree it is not possible since it parses the files and arrange them in the virtual folders sources/headers... If you want a file system representation you can chage the view to it. But you then will see all other files also. (And also no tree structure.)

So back to the original question: You can't have it right out of the box. Also I don't know a comftable way to create pri file in creator. But also then, Qt Creator is parsing the pri content in virtual folders. So the only possibility is to write a plugin, that displays the file system in a tree model.

Thank you. I tried many times but got no success. At least I know it's impossible now. Or I may ask Qt Creator team to think about it :-)

You have a nice day!
