[Qtwebengine] Trouble getting webengine to build as a part of Qt 5.4 Alpha

[Bryan Chan]

Sorry, hit reply instead of reply all (adding back the mailing list)

Yes, that was a cut an paste error, the configure was here at the root of the 5.4 alpha package.

C:\Qt\5.4-alpha>configure -opensource -mp -nomake examples -nomake tests -debug-
and-release -c++11 -no-warnings-are-errors -platform win32-msvc2013

Then I ran nmake after.

I have MSVC213 professional.

I'll poke around a bit more  then file a bug report if I can't get it building.

Thanks again for the help.

Hi Bryan, 

Please stick to the mailing list in future, so everybody can see the replies and help out benefit from the question already answered.

I haven’t seen this error before. The configure options look okay to me, however i’m quite sure you did not execute it the way it is mentioned.
There is no configure script in qtwebengine, just within qtbase. - I assume this is a copy paste error.

Do you have MSVC2013 express or professional?

You are not by any chance trying a shadow build (out of source build), are you? - Shadow builds are currently not supported for QtWebEngine.

Other than that I can’t spot anything wrong with your setup.
If the error persists, can you maybe file a bugreport and attach the full log as well as exact specifications of your system.
In particular:
- Windows Version
- Python Version
- shasums of your qt5.git clone, the qtwebengine submodule and the qtwebengine/src/3rdparty submodule

Thank you very much,

- Zeno
