[SOLVED] Building Qt 5.3 Alpha on Mac: webkitwidgets and webkit built successfully, but are unavailable
-
This is the error message I get:
bq. Unknown module(s) in QT: webkitwidgets webkit
How can I fix this this problem? I swear I've seen Webkit being built! At least, some parts of it, v8 and such. In fact, that's what took the most of the day. Why do I get this error and how to fix it?
This is how I've configured Qt:
bq. ./configure -c++11 -no-qml-debug -no-openssl -nomake examples -nomake tests -no-cups -no-icu -no-xcb -opengl desktop
There are indeed files qtwebkit/lib/QtWebKit.framework and QtWebKitWidgets.framework
-
Any advice please? The problem is that qmake doesn't acknowledge I do have webkit. Where does it get a list of available Qt modules?
-
Hi,
Qt WebKit requires ICU and Ruby: http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building_Qt_5_from_Git
-
Just to reiterate: I've built QtWebkit successfully - without ICU and Ruby. In fact, I've configured Qt with -no-icu, and I still got QtWebkit framework built. Are you saying it's non-functional and that's why it is not detected by qmake? I think building QtWebkit took more than half the total time to build Qt.
-
How do you get that error message?
Do you run examples or trying to build something using the modules?Take a look on the installation directory Qt_install_root/lib and verify that you have QtWebkit framework installed and it contains something.
-
QtWebKit.framework is far from empty, 183.4 MB. It is located at the correct path.
I get this error when running qmake on a .pro file that has QT += webkit -
Mac OS X requires some additional steps to be done if you build it by yourself.
What does otool -L shows?
@
otool -L /Qt_install_root/lib/QtWebKit.framework/QtWebKit
@if it does not show correct path to QtWebKit then you need to modify it using install_name_tool
@
install_name_tool -change QtWidgets.framework/Versions/5/QtWidgets /Qt_install_root/lib/QtWidgets.framework/Versions/5/QtWidgets /Qt_install_root/lib/QtWidgets.framework/Versions/5/QtWidgets
@The same steps need to be done for all shared libraries.

"Qt for Mac OS X - Deployment":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/macosx-deployment.html gives more details on it.

Thanks for the advice, but I don't see anything wrong here:

Is it possible that you have another version of Qt without webkit and you run qmake from that Qt?
-
No, I don't believe so. i've got 3 versions of Qt, of which all have webkit. Plus, I'm running qmake from Qt Creator where I have 3 kits configured, so I'm pretty sure I've got the right qmake.
-
Try to run qmake manually with -d option
@
qmake -d -recursive your_sources_dir
@It will produce a lot of info
-
And just to be sure run qmake -v to verify that you are calling qmake from correct Qt.
-
If I run qmake manually from an arbitrary dir, I will get qmake for 4.8.5 which, apparently, I have in PATH and I need to preserve this behaviour. In Qt creator, I have all my 3 Qt versions configured, and I have manually pointed each to the right qmake.
-
Aha! It was a problem with qmake. It was the right qmake, but I was using a copy located elsewhere. Once I pointed to the same qmake in /usr/local/Qt-5.3.../bin, it all started working. Thanks!
