    Hi.

    After updating to MSVC to 17.12, I wasn't able to build Qt WebEngine, using vcpkg, due to compilation errors in v8.

    I submitted a fix to vcpkg, https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/pull/42383, and they wanted me to provide the fix upstream.
    Additionally I submitted a patch to v8, but they didn't want my fix, as msvc is considered unsupported since september, https://groups.google.com/g/v8-dev/c/pvG4a-ue7pU.

    So my question is, is msvc considered supported by WebEngine, and do you welcome patches for 3rd party libraries?

      I wonder if those patches are really needed - don't see a bug report about this in Qt bug tracker and it looks very uncommon that the latest msvc is not used by someone inside TQtC.
      I would create a bug report -> bugreports.qt.io

        @bamo-volue You should ask on developers mailing list. This is user forum.
