‘QWebView’ does not name a type

___Jan___

Hello

I get error

 error: ‘QWebView’ does not name a type

although I have

#include <QtWebView/QtWebView>

what does not work:

#include<QWebView>

Ubuntu 14.04 OS

I use QT5 with VTK 6 if this is needed.

Hi,

If you are thinking about the QtWebView module, did you add:

QT += webview

to your pro file ?

Hello

forgot to mention it is a CMakeProject.

find_package (Qt5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Widgets Core WebKit)

is included. Not sure if WebKit is the right module name, tried to look this up.

So your are using the QWebView from webkit, IIRC, you would also need the webkitwidgets module

Hi @Jan,

It is confusing, but "QWebView" does not come from "Qt WebView". Instead, it comes from "Qt WebKit Widgets", like @SGaist said.

Qt WebView is mainly for mobile platforms to use the native web engine.

Thanks for the help, I will test out (right now I do not have this setup anymore). Just one more quick question:
the module name is WebKitWidgets? So

find_package (Qt5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Widgets Core WebKitWidgets)

will work?
and then in the include:

#include <QtWebKitWidgets>

Thanks alot

I'm not sure, sorry. I don't use CMake.

and then in the include:
#include <QtWebKitWidgets>

No need to include the whole module. Just include the class you want: #include <QWebView>
