Though not a complete answer, here are some advantages of using qt_create pkg in qt_ros stack:

  • Upon creating pkg, CMakeLists.txt will be modified, which allows you to build pkg (by rosmake) that uses Qt on the fly
    • MOC files will be generated automatically
    • include paths, library paths are filled.
    • Qt's resource files will be integrated.
  • A class automatically generated called QNode provides interface between ROS and your Qt codes.

Although qt_create is deprecated in fuerte(http://www.ros.org/wiki/qt_create), it still works fine on my environment. HTH.
