I want to create a panel of my own in slicer, I copy a file such as ui and corresponding ui\_xxx.h, moc\_xxx.cpp, and change its name, smoother can run properly; I edited the .ui file in Qt, how can I automatically generate files like ui\_xxx.h, and how can the moc\_xxx.cpp file be generated automatically? Thanks.
Like the following files, I think they are automatically generated???

If you add the .ui file to CMakeLists.txt (search for UI\_SRCS) then the associated files will be generated during the build process.
