[CMake] AUTOMOC does not process headers in subdirectory of include/

[Mario Emmenlauer]

Dear all,

we have a problem that Qt moc is only called for headers in the
include directory of the project, not for subdirectories. Attached
is a minimal example. cmake should call moc to generate the moc-
sources in MyQtWidgets_autogen/include/bda/ folder. However the
sources are not generated. When I move the header out of the
subdirectory (from include/bda/CollapsibleDockWidget.hh to
include/CollapsibleDockWidget.hh) and fix the include path in the
source files, then moc works correctly.

I think this is wrong, but I could not find explicit documentation
about how the headers and sources are set for moc (see [1]).

Does cmake not respect the headers listed with add_library()?
Or is there something else I'm doing wrong?

All the best,

    Mario Emmenlauer
