Qt 5.4Beta for Windows producing compile errors
-
I have seen reference to Qt 5.4Beta having a "QtWebengine" bug by Mac users. Since I have been having problems with getting Qt 5.4 to deploy my project that I couldn't resolve, I decided to reinstall Qt.. I just reloaded Qt 5.4Beta opensource onto my Windows 7 64 bit machine. The following programs were installed prior:
Visual Studio Express 2013 x64
Perl
Python
Window SDK
DirectX SDK
JOM
Ruby
ICU
bison
flex
gperfI did not make any changes the Qmake Conf file. I then entered the following (via MSVC2013 x64 Command Prompt):
set: QMAKESPEC=win32-msvc2013
set: QTDIR=C:\Qt540\5.4\src\qtbase
set: PATH=C:\Qt540\5.4\src\bin;%PATH%I then configured Qt (via the Command Prompt) for dynamic linking ( I hope) as follows:
-debug-and-release -opensource -platform win32-msvc2013 -opengl desktop
The program configured without error.Then I ran nmake. (I originally tried jom, but it repeatedly said after a few minutes, "icu.exe" stopped working) After 2.25 hrs, compilation ended with the following:
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Project Error: -- running gyp-qtwebengine failed--
NMAKE : Fatal error U1077: '(': Returncode '0x3'
Step.
NMAKE : Fatal error U1077: 'cd': Returncode '0x2'
Step.
NMAKE : Fatal error U1077: 'cd': Returncode '0x2'
Step.
NMAKE : Fatal error U1077: 'cd': Returncode '0x2'
Step.I have no idea what the problem was? I did run Qt Creator (v3.2.2) and it seemed to function properly. Also, I was able to run a project that didn't run prior to the re-load. Does this "error" just effect the QWebengine, if used) or is there a fatal flaw in the entire program that I haven't found yet?
I did notice though, when I ran "Dependency Walker" on the .exe file of my project, I got the following missing .dll info:
API-MS-WIN-APPMODEL-RUNTIME-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-ERROR-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-ROBUFFER-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-STRING-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-SHCORE-SCALING-L1-1-1.DLL
DCOMP.DLL
IESHIMS.DLLThe above .dll's are not even on my system! and I assume the below missing ones, which ARE on the system, are dependencies of the above missing ones.
c:\windows\system32\API-MS-WIN-CORE-THREADPOOL-L1-1-0.DLL
c:\windows\system32\DWMAPI.DLL
c:\windows\system32\OLE32.DLL
c:\windows\system32\ESENT.DLL
c:\windows\system32\IEFRAME.DLL
c:\windows\system32\IMM32.DLL
c:\windows\system32\MFPLAT.DLL
c:\windows\system32\NCRYPT.DLL
c:\windows\system32\NDFAPI.DLL
c:\windows\system32\UXTHEME.DLLAny thoughts and assistance GREATLY appreciated!
