Hi,
We really like using premake4 in our projects, and always use it when possible. But when building Qt based projects, we have to rely on other solutions, as we couldn't find a ready-to-use way to achieve this.
My question is, is there some resources to build Qt based projects with premake4 ? And what would you suggest to achieve this goal ?
If it's successful, I guess we could then share it here.
Anyway, great tool.

I've never had an occasion to use Qt, so I'm not going to be much help. There is a short mailing list thread and an equally short forum thread.
Are you running into any specific issues or problems?
No specific issue at the moment, I was simply looking for advices and/or resources. I'll give it I try !
Thanks
I've found this stuff:

You'll need qtpresets4.lua
Sample Qt4 project: http://code.google.com/p/timprojectenchanter/source/browse/#svn%2Ftempla...
More Premake'ish and more complete support for Qt (warning: gmake only):

I am just curious why you refuse to use qmake. It is really good enough for Qt-only project.
Maybe you could hide qmake in premake script :D
Here is the explanation why you shouldn't use qmake:

In short: qmake's language is too quirky to be used in non-trivial projects, and has a lot of other limitations which will hurt you when your project grows up. Also, qmake is deprecated by its developers and will be replaced in future by other tool.
