[Interest] Qt 6.8.5 static - error: dependent 'D:\Qt\6.8.5\msvc2022_static\lib\Qt6QuickControls2d.lib' does not exist.

[Nuno Santos]

Hi,

To may who concern, I’ve recently built 6.8.5 static for Windows and it hasn’t created the Qt6QuickControls2d.lib

It gives me linking error when using the debug version. I’ve looked for the file in the directory and it is indeed failing. Didn’t tried on macOS yet.

I didn’t had this problem with 6.8.4. I always build Qt with the same build settings:

configure.bat -prefix C:\Qt\6.8.5\msvc2022_static -static -static-runtime -debug-and-release -nomake examples -nomake tests -nomake benchmarks -nomake manual-tests -nomake minimal-static-tests -openssl-linked -qtnamespace MYNAMESPACE -- -DOPENSSL_ROOT_DIR="C:\Qt-Utils\openssl" -DOPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS=TRUE

I cannot open a Qt Bug report because I’m currently with a id mismatch and I wanted to sort it out before creating new issues, which might take a while.

Thanks for listening!

Regards,

Nuno
