Unable to complete custom Qt build (5.5.1, x64, msvc 2013, Windows)

[Igor Y]

Hello,

Got compile error

F:\qtsrc\qt3d\src\3rdparty\assimp\code\FBXParser.c pp(50) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'zlib.h': No such file or directory

while trying to make custom build with

-opensource -confirm-license -debug-and-release -mp

Has anyone met such case?

Thanks in advance

@Igor-Y hi, can you find zlib.h in your project path;it can not detect header file.

@stackprogramer
It's not my project )
I'm trying to build Qt from sources
configure -opensource -confirm-license -debug-and-release -mp
nmake

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Out of curiosity, why not use the pre-built 5.5.1 package ? Both the 32 and 64bit version are available for VS2013

@Igor-Y
oh it's great for starting.
please see http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/build-sources.html

@SGaist Because prebuilt library causes http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/software-os/f/3526/t/19634253 (https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-41416)

@stackprogramer I read it, I already built some Qt versions from sources. Even more - I built 5.5.1 for this configuration:
configure -opensource -debug-and-release -no-compile-examples -nomake tests -nomake examples -confirm-license -skip qtwebkit -skip qtwebengine -skip qtserialport -skip qtmacextras -skip qtx11extras -skip qtandroidextras -skip qtenginio -skip qtsensors
but as I said - failed to build full library
configure -opensource -confirm-license -debug-and-release -mp

Do you need Qt3D ? if not then simply avoid building that module or try with Qt 5.6 RC
