QtWebEngine compilation issue using Visual Studio 2022

Cobra91151

Hello!

I have an issue during QtWebEngine build process using Qt 5.15.9. It occurs only with VS 2022 compiler.

Output:

Qt is now configured for building. Just run 'nmake'.
Once everything is built, you must run 'nmake install'.
Qt will be installed into 'C:\Qt\5.15.9\msvc2022_64'.

Prior to reconfiguration, make sure you remove any leftovers from
the previous build.

I think, the issue occurs with this line: mojom_core.build_metadata --enable-feature is_win
QtWebEngine compiles successfully using Visual Studio 2019 compiler. This issue is only related to Visual Studio 2022 compiler. Any ideas how to fix it? Is there any patch which fixes this error? Thanks in advance.

And with this, it's also easier to find a patch. E.g. https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/commit/668bf87fc5c58d2ba1ef34013f2c4e85e7dd2eff

@Cobra91151 , related: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-112913 (probably also filed by you)?

I don't know whether there's a direct fix. But two comments:

Microsoft nowadays guarantees some binary compatibility between MSVC 2019 and MSVC 2022. That is, you should be able to use MSVC 2022 for your own application, even if you continue building qtwebengine with 2019 (see also https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/porting/binary-compat-2015-2017?view=msvc-170).
In QTBUG-112913, it looks like you're trying a debug build. THis can be brittle, as Qt WebEngine is so large. Have you tried a release build?

Hello!

Yes, I created this bug report: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-112913
Additionally, I reported this issue here: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/QtWebEngine-5159-compilation-issue-usi/10344580

The same issue occurs when building QtWebEngine in release mode:

And with this, it's also easier to find a patch. E.g. https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/commit/668bf87fc5c58d2ba1ef34013f2c4e85e7dd2eff

Great!
I have successfully built the QtWebEngine using VS 2022. The issue is resolved. Thank you.

This thread was very helpful to fix this error. I updated my visual studio using available auto updates in my visual studio 2022 and my errors gone away. However, I started getting new errors for chromium as below.

I think there is still some issue in this. I am trying to build QT with webengine for 5.15.12 (LTS).

Can someone help me fix this problem? Any other suggestions?

Hello!

I have added this patch: https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtwebengine-chromium/+/505412
And successfully built QtWebEngine 5.15.14 for Visual Studio 2022. This issue is resolved.
