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

Cobra91151

I have reinstall Qt 5.7.1 and my .pro include is QT += widgets core gui network webview concurrent

test.h
#include <QtWebView>

But the error is the same when initialize QtWebView *mapBrowserView;

QtWebView is not the class, it is the namespace, image:

Cobra91151

Now I have figured it out - Qt WebView provides a way to display web content in a QML application but I'm developing Win API application only for Windows OS. So it will not work.

So here is how I have fixed it:

Copy the contents of the archive qtwebkit_tp4_qt57_msvc2015_x86.zip to C:\Qt\5.7\msvc2015;
Include webkitwidgets to .pro file;
Include #include <QtWebKitWidgets/QWebView>
Initialized the QWebView *mapBrowserView; object;

Now it's all compile and work.

@vadak

Hi
Did you try to copy as Cobra91151 wrote ?

As far as I know there is no extra documentation available.

vadak

@mrjj,no i am not copying anythink from @Cobra91151 ,and i also faceing same issue but i don't know how to add qtwebkit_tp4_qt57_msvc2015_x64.zip to my Qt5.7 MSVC2015 compiler.

mrjj

So you didnt try like he wrote ?

vadak

@mrjj yes

mrjj

Ok but you should to that then.
and dont forget to run qmake from build menu when you change the .pro file.

vadak

so i need copy this qtwebkit_tp4_qt57_msvc2015_x86.zip to C:\Qt\5.7\msvc2015; to qtbase is enough and i need following below step is enough? . and i will give qmake ?.

Copy the contents of the archive qtwebkit_tp4_qt57_msvc2015_x86.zip to C:\Qt\5.7\msvc2015;
Include webkitwidgets to .pro file;
Include #include <QtWebKitWidgets/QWebView>
Initialized the QWebView *mapBrowserView; object;

mrjj

@vadak

Why not try it. ? ( i have not)

He says to unpack the zip to that location (Copy the contents ). not copy whole zip file.
he says it then worked for him.
And after you alter your .pro file, you must run qmake from build menu.

vadak

@mrjj issue is resolved ,thanks for your support.

mrjj

@vadak

so how did you fix it ?
you had to do more than what was explained here ?

vadak

@mrjj,what ever step you told that only i followed(above conversation) and my late replay, nextday onwards i fixed this issue.

mrjj

@vadak

vadak

@mrjj,yes thats what i am thinking .
