Building QtWebKit for Qt 5.7 win32-msvc2015
-
Hello guys, did anyone build QtWebKit module for Qt 5.7 (win32-msvc2015)? I set SQLITE3SRCDIR, set ICU location, but qmake/makefile is somewhat hesistant to build anything, here is what are they complaining about not having the right functions:

@Peppy Can it be that you are using qmake from Qt 4 to build it?

@Konstantin-Tokarev I'm not using Qt 4 since Qt 5 was released.

@Peppy Ok, next try: you are building Source/QtWebKit.pro instead of top-level WebKit.pro

@Konstantin-Tokarev I'm building it via command line. i.e.:
C:\Qt\5.7\...\bin\qmake.exe -r CONFIG+=releasethe variables are set to
PATH=C:\icu\lib;C:\icu\include;C:\... SQLITE3SRCDIR=C:\Qt\5.7\...\Src\qtbase\src\3rdparty\sqliteand by the way, that's not the whole output. It's much more longer, but I've truncated it.

Okay, few updates:
- Needed msys64, ruby and python, after installing msys64, install via
pacman -Sy python ruby - QMAKE still can't find ICU even if I added them into path. (ping @Konstantin-Tokarev)

When building on Windows, you should add ICU paths to INCLUDE and LIBS environment variables.
BTW, it may make more sense for you to build new QtWebKit from https://github.com/annulen/webkit (see https://github.com/annulen/webkit/wiki/Building-QtWebKit-on-Windows for build instructions).

@Konstantin-Tokarev Why would I use that branch?
INCLUDEPATH and LIBS somehow does not work... I will try to tinker with it today again.

Because it is based on WebKit revision from 2016 (not from 2013, as in 5.7), and it has seen a lot of testing with MSVC 2015 (I'm not sure if 5.7 has all necessary patches, e.g. this may be needed: https://github.com/Vitallium/qtwebkit/commit/4cd12f3ec460a38bfb15a78beb1ec27fe6aebd60)

@Konstantin-Tokarev what exactly do I have to link? How the LIBS variable should look like.
-
My bad, it's actually "LIB", not "LIBS". It should contain semicolon-separated list of directories where libraries can be searched
