add Qt to existing Visual Studio c++ project

Question

hey there!

I've got an existing Visual Studio c++ project. It creates a mainwindow using GLUT and got a right-click menu (also using glut)

all I want to do now is to open a second window used as property inspector to display and change some values.

Everyone recommends using Qt for GUI stuff - but all the tutorials I find regard either working in Qt creator or how to create a Qt project from scratch.

I remember to have used Qt some years ago to do something similar and it was not so difficult to add it to my project.

Can anyone explain, or point me to a tutorial explaining how to do this?

thanks!

There is an ability of qmake to generate .vcproj from a .pro file. So you should read qmake documentation to create a right .pro file.
