How to include QScriptEngine?

I'm having trouble trying to add the QScript module to a project I've created in QtCreator. I've added the script module to my .pro file:

QT += script xml

However, this gives me the error Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: script.

Including any classes from this module is also causing a file not found error:

#include <QScriptEngine>

How do I set up my project to be able to use the JavaScript module?

Hi
Its a separate module so needs to be selected to be installed

Thanks. Would you know why it's deprecated? It seems pretty useful to me. Is there a more up to date replacement for it?

@kitfox
Its old and due to changes in used tech,
it was a burden to make it use new versions of that tech.

But its not a 1 to 1 replacement.
