Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: webenginewidgets

yogeshpatel23 · 5 Mar 2015, 23:41

I have installed Qt 5.4.1 using online installer, I have selected webengine option during installation. Even after that I am getting error "Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: webenginewidgets" whenever I am adding "QT += webenginewidgets" in .pro file.

I am using Windows 7 64 bit & installed Qt 5.4.1 with msvc2010 32 bit opengl .

Could anybody tell me what is missing ?????

Hi,

Qt WebEngine uses the Chromium browser. Unfortunately, Chromium only supports MSVC 2013, so you need to update your compiler and install Qt for MSVC 2013.

Yes...You are right, but unfortunately on windows 7 I am getting error with tool chain msvc2013 like glu32.lib not found, but in windows 8 all is working fine.

Thanks for suggestion.

That's a different problem. Solve that first (start a new thread), and then come back to try Qt WebEngine again.

So this means that it is not currently possible to build android applications that use QWebEngineView from a windows system right?

@musimbate The QtWebEngine module suffers the same restrictions as the QtWebKit for Android and iOS.

For a list of currently supported platforms, have a look here
