    Tobias?


I admit that I did not yet notice that yet:-) I turn the whole thing
into a tree anyway and do not care about the order of the elements.

Server-mode is not doing anything special, it just grabs the project
list from cmGlobalGenerator::GetProjectMap() and dumps it. That is a
map, so now that I think about it, it is sorted by name:-)

Yes, I could re-sort that to be in another order.

This comes off mainly as a visual issue but also a but of a usability issue. Our project is called "DREAM3D" but has a subproject called "AMProcessMonitoring". After loading the project in QtCreator 4.3 beta using CMake 3.7.1 (on OS X if that matters at all), the top level is listed as "AMProcessMonitoring". Everything generally compiles fine from there. If I close the project and go to QtCreators Welcome page I don't see "DREAM3D" anymore but I see "AMProcessMonitoring" instead. Clicking on the "AMProcessingMonitoring" link correctly opens the project. It is just odd to see it that way.

So if you could somehow mark the top level project when you get the list from CMake and percolate that to the QtCreator UI it would be really great. So far the combination of QtCreator 4.3 and CMake 3.7.1 has really great potential. There are still some rough spots but I generally am really happy with this combination now.
