       This  manual  page  was  written  by  Brian Nelson <pyro@debian.org> based on the output of qmake-help.

Description

QMake  has  two  modes, one mode for generating project files based on some heuristics, and the other for
       generating makefiles. Normally you shouldn't need to specify  a  mode,  as  makefile  generation  is  the
       default mode for qmake, but you may use this to test qmake on an existing project.

Mode

-project
              Put  qmake  into  project file generation mode. In this mode qmake interprets files as files to be
              built, defaults to *.c; *.ui; *.y; *.l; *.ts; *.xlf; *.qrc; *.h; *.hpp; *.hh; *.hxx;  *.H;  *.cpp;
              *.cc; *.cxx; *.C.

       -makefile
              Put  qmake into makefile generation mode (default). In this mode qmake interprets files as project
              files to be processed, if skipped qmake will try to find a project file in  your  current  working
              directory.
