Your determination is quite astounding :) Good luck, mate.

It still is there. Yeah Thanks :)

I did a quick Check and Qt Creator cant find Files like QApplication and QWebView and even not QObject and QMainWindow. But the Files are in the Qt-Build Subfolders. Also if i load my Project it says "Unknown Module(s) in webkitwidgets". And in the UI Designer, the WebView Stuff is gone.

Seems i need to build this manually even as i have build Qt with the -ICU Paramter and the Webkit and Webkit-Examples Folders are in Place.

But i am not sure what i can do about the "Files not Found" - other than copy things from a to b.

For Building the Webkit i will try these Instructions
trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingQtOnWindows
I hope after 1 Year that they are still valid.

And for the (not really) missing Files: "Playtime!"

I have come that far, now i want everything :)

I tried to make Webkit and was forced to rename \Gnuwin32\bin\flex.exe to win_flex.exe (WebKit is looking for win_flex.exe which leads to an error). And i need many many other things too like fonconfig, SQLite and so on,

This will take a while...

Compiling Webkit now with above Instructions.

Question: Is there a Parameter for mingw32-make (or the other build tools) to build the Webkit only?

Edit 01: Compiler Stops with Error 1: "Win_Flex unknown flag '-' and "[generated/glslang_lex.cpp] Error 1"

@
cd qtwebkit
mingw32-make

Or in root dir:
@
mingw32-make webkit

Thanks. Thats simpler than i thought.

I tried that and get "*** no rule to make target webkit. stop"

Time to clean things up - again.

Sorry its me again: I have run qmake and i get the configuration warning

"! Qt not configured to use system libjpeg, QImageDecoder will Decode JPEG images" and
! Qt not configured to use system libpng, QImageDecoder will Decode PNG images" <<-- Can ignore this or must i prepare my Apps in future some how?

Thanks!

Most probably you can ignore this.

Hello Again.

I decided to build Qt 5.2 again - and this time Webkit got compiled and QWebview is shown in Designer.

But: Compiling Qt Creator 3.0:
I am back to that dumb Problem that qmake says
"Utils.pro -> Missing Module(s) in Qt: Script". No matter what i try.

Even when i check this QBS Stuff out with Git.
And when i do qmake without "-r", everything seems to be fine and MingW32-make builds the "AggregationSystemD.dll" "ExtensionSystemD.dll". But he crashs at "UtilsD.dll"

Get an Error when he tries to built:
"Unknown Module(s) in Qt: Script"

Well its Playtime again.
EDIT 01: Erased QtScript Folder and running mingw32-make again...
EDIT 02: QtScript compiled without Error but compiling Qt Creator still dont work

Hello and good morning Forum :)

Oh man I cant believe it: I have lost 1.5 Days for looking through the qt-project Forum, Google and many many other Sites.

And the Reason why i cant Compile Qt Creator ["Utils.pro -> Unknown Module(s) in Qt: Script"] is that simple (and also that dumb):

After successfully building Qt 5.2, make sure to run
"mingw32-make install" (just be sure everything is in Place) - i had some probs even with the Parameter "-developer-build".

And then
"mingw32-make clean"

to remove the temporary Files or you [well at least i ;)] cant compile Qt Creator.

One negative thing I have read about the Clean Parameter: It will also remove the Debugger Symbols and some People had to recompile Qt completely. Not sure if i can avoid this by putting the Release and Debug Libraries (or the whole Qt "Kit") into seperate Folders.

But this is something i will try in February 2014 when the 5.2.1 Final is (expected [planned to be]) released.

The noob is now going to waste more time for compiling Qt Creator ;)
Start compiling at 11:41AM GMT+1

Have a nice Day everyone :)
Update 01:

First Compilation Try failed ("-lqbscored1" error thingy). I have tried the Variant with "git clone --recursive" and it works. Now setting up the System. Will report back if i run into more Probs :)

Update 02: Anothing i have learnt: Dont be an Idiot like me and run "mingw32-make docs" and "mingw32-make translations" BEFORE You run "mingw32-make clean" or the Documentation for Qt and Creator cant be build. Luckily i did a Full Backup of the Qt Folder before i ran "mingw32-make clean".

My Steps for doing this Stuff in the Future:
@
1.) First compile Qt
2.) Run "mingw32-make"
When Qt is successfully compiled:
3.) Run "mingw32-make docs"
4.) Run "mingw32-make translations"

When its done witout Errors:
5.) Compile Qt Creator
6.) redo Steps 3 and 4 (but this time while being in the Qt Creator Folder of course)
7.) Start Qt Creator and Happy coding :)

I wish you all a peaceful Sunday evening and a wonderful start in the new Week.
Greetings
The Noob aka Oliver ;)

Edit 03: Forget it. I ran into that long existing Bug, that i cant create the Documentation when i use "-prefix". Even i have used the Parameter "-developer-build". Trying to get things in order. Some how. Some Day. Maybe.
