I want to know if anyone would be interested in an application wizard for Microsoft Visual Studio. This would be aimed at people who want to use the opensource version of Qt with the Microsft Visual C++ compiler from within the Visual Studio IDE. ( Of course, you would need a patched version of the Qt opensource libs in the first place. ) All this would do is give you a new project wizard that creates an empty Qt app that would build right away. It would create the files you need and set up all the compiler and linker options and the special build rules for the UIC and MOC tools.

If there is demand for this, what would be the best way to distribute it? An installer package? The source files? Also, what about the legal issues? Trolltech has said repeatedly that they consider use of open source Qt with Visual Studio a no-no and that they consider the visual studio integration that comes with the commerical package one of the ways in which they can differentiate between the open source and the commerical versions in their buisiness model. Should open source Qt and Visual Studio be avoided?
