Description

The Code generated by the qt5cpp generator is incomplete and does not really match the other client library structures ( like cpprest, perl, ... ).

I would create a complete new set of templates and adapt the generator code, to make sure, the Qt5CPP generator behaves like cpprest and is more feature complete.

Is there any active maintainer for Qt5 or such a project already in progress?

As there is also #3203 outstanding for Qt5 i would also take care of this.

Research direction
Investigate the existing Qt5 code generator templates and source code in modules/swagger codegen/src/main/resources/qt5cpp. Study the cpprest generator structure to understand the expected output format, and review related issue #3203 for additional context. Consider reaching out to maintainers for guidance on acceptance criteria, as the scope is large.
