Does Qt 5.15 support OpenSSL 3.x?

QuantumTransistor

@seyed - I used the patch from your gist and was able to successfully build and use Qt 5.15.10 with OpenSSL 3.1.2 using -openssl-runtime. Thanks!! 🎉

I hope to avoid rebuilding Qt + patches. Will Qt release a 5.15.x update that will allow compilation against openssl 3 ?

@ocgltd if memory serves well, the 5.15 LTS has support for OpenSSL 3 so it should eventually come to be.

You might want to check the KDE patch set for Qt.

@ocgltd according to a comment on this bug report, OpenSSL 3 is supported with Qt 5.15.13 onwards. If you are using the open-source version, this should be available 9 March 2024 (one year after the commercial release date).

Openssl works with 5.15.13 (open source) but we need to compiare with c++17

SGaist

@piervalli what issue do you have with C++17 ?
Qt 5 requires C++11 and OpenSSL is C.

The issue is with Qt 5.15.13 and build by source I haved setted c++17 for that error.
text\qlocale_win.cpp:498:60: error: 'size' is not a member of 'std'

I used Mingw 8.1

Since https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/iterator/size states that C++17 onward is required for std::size() it ought be present. (You might show line #498 of text\qlocale_win.cpp so we know what the call looks like.) That implies either you are not setting for C++17 correctly or the MinGW does not have correct support for it. You might look in the appropriate std::... header file to see what is/is not there for this.

@JonB Thanks

Hang on, I see a problem!

Go to that cppreference page. Look at the sample code. Go pick the various c++17 compilers it offers. With GCC 13.1 (C++17) it compiles fine. But with GCC 5.2 (C++17) I get the same error as you show.

So which gcc is the MinGW supposed to emulate? You can go to https://godbolt.org/ and play with selecting different compilers, they include MinGW choices. The oldest they have is MinGW gcc 11.3.0, that seems to work (only errors on std::ssize() in that code, which requires C++20, fair enough).
