qtbase

qt_wrap_cpp - Behavior change

qt_wrap_cpp will accept .cpp files from now on. When .cpp a file is passed to qt_wrap_cpp, TARGET parameter becomes required. Generated .moc files are added to target's sources inside qt_wrap_cpp. That's why the output parameter will not contain generated .moc files.
