Can I write new attributes to a project or would you consider this bad practice? Now that the cbEVT_COMPILER_STARTED is emitted I can use it to run a process needed by QtWorkbench (qmake) and do it transparent from the end user that until now had to select running that process from a menu entry. The main thing is that I have to flag somehow if the user is actually using QtWorkbench for his/her project and not run qmake *every* time the user tries to build something but only when the respective project is flagged/marked that it is using QtWorkbench and Makefiles. The only solutions for this are:
1. I write to the project file a new entry
2. Check if the user has actually created input files for qmake and conclude that he/she actually wants to invoke qmake before each build.
1. is preferred but I can live with 2.
As a sidenote now that we 're in the subject how would you propose running that process? I 'm using PipedProcess and catching the OnProcessTerminated event after "borrowing" code from the compiler plugin sometime ago
