    Description

      Hi there,

      I'm trying to compile Qt5.9.2 with MSVC2017 from source and it won't compile QtWebEngine.

      Every other component like QtCore, QtWidgets, QtQuick etc. compiles without any error.

      The error QtWebEngine throws is the following:

          link /NOLOGO /DYNAMICBASE /NXCOMPAT /DEBUG /DLL /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS /VERSION:5.9 /MANIFEST:embed /OUT:..\..\lib\Qt5WebEngineCasd.dll @C:\Users\MIKE~1.KNA\AppData\Local\Temp\nmF02C.tmp
         Library "..\..\lib\Qt5WebEngineCasd.lib" and object "..\..\lib\Qt5WebEngineCasd.exp" was created.
      qtwebengineglobal.obj : error LNK2019: Reference to unresolved external symbol ""void __cdecl QtWebEngineCore::initialize(void)" (?initialize@QtWebEngineCore@@YAXXZ)" in function ""void __cdecl QtWebEngine::initialize(void)" (?initialize@QtWebEngine@@YAXXZ)".
      ..\..\lib\Qt5WebEngineCasd.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
      

      See the above environment and the attached archive for more details like path variable, makefile, config.log, etc. and if you need further details just ask.

      Anyway what is wrong and how do I solve this problem?

      Kind regards,
      Mike

       

      EDIT 11/10/2017

      I've gone backwards from 5.9.2.
      5.9.1 has the same problem and it doesn't matter if I'm using nmake/jom and/or debug/release.
      5.9.0 is free of this bug and it creates the dependend Qt5WebEngine(d).dll and Qt5WebEngineWidgets(d).dll successfully.

      Another nice to know fact: I'm using the qt everywhere opensource archives from the qt archive: https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.9/

       

      EDIT 12/10/2017

      I forgot to mention that I've tried at first to compile 5.9.2 and 5.9.1 as 32bit version, where I encountered that problem. Now I've tested to compile both as 64bit versions and the error still remains.
