Hello, colleagues!

I have a linker error when I try to build Qt 5.15 for Windows in Visual Studio Community edition.

I configured Qt using this command

configure -debug -skip qtwebengine  -opensource

I know that these errors were connected with C++11 standard, but which way I can add this to Visual Studio nmake ?

@YuriyRusinov
I don't build for Windows, and it probably won't make any difference, but you could add -platform win32-msvc to your configure in case that addresses this issue?

Hi,

Which version of visual studio are you using ?
By the way, since you are building Qt yourself, you might want to grab the latest sources available at this time.

@JonB

I did it, but error also present.

YuriyRusinov · wrote on 4 Sept 2024, 09:29

Problem was solved, because some modules were skipped. Result configure is

configure.bat -debug -nomake examples -nomake tests -skip qtwebengine -skip declarative -skip qtdeclarative -skip qtlocation -skip qtmultimedia -skip qtquickcontrols -skip qtsensors -skip qttools -skip qtwebsockets -skip qtwinextras -skip qtwebchannel -skip qtwebengine -opensource -platform win32-msvc

Hello again!

If I compile and install Qt, but sometimes later I need some skipped libraries, which way I can add them?

@YuriyRusinov said in Linker error in build Qt 5.15 for Windows:

which way I can add them?

By building these modules

If you still have the old folder where you compiled, it will be a lot faster because make will just skip the things that have already been built. On the other hand, ther might also be some defines which are added, so I'm not entirely sure if this triggers a full rebuild (or should retrigger, but doesn't). You'll only be on the safe side when you do a fresh compile.
