How to build qtbase-everywhere-src-6.5.4 only on windows using MingW64 ?

[Mr.Anubis]

I am new to qt and I want to build static version of library qtbase-everywhere-src-6.x.x only (skipping all other modules) on windows 10 so that I can use it with mingw. I want minimal build due to pc's limited resources. This will be learning path for me to build heavy library like this (atleast I can try hence I just want to follow this path)

I have already installed perl, python, openssl, ninja, mingw with seh (not from qt). How to proceed? which flags etc to use?

Thanks a lot
Regards

You can choose how to use the openssl libs: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/configure-options.html#ssl

Please follow the documentation: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/windows-building.html

If you get some errors report back here with the relevant information.

Just be aware you will not be able to build Qt's (optional) QtWebEngine module with MinGW, so don't pick that if offered. Nor for that matter anything Bluetooth.

Thanks @Christian-Ehrlicher and @JonB It worked in first go :)
Can you guys check the build log, here is the build log : https://pastebin.com/1bQ9xsfP
