Description
Since 5.11, WebEngine on Windows requires _MSC_FULL_VER >= 191125507
- Which Visual Studio Version is this exactly? Check at build time says 'VS 2017 Update 3.2', but I fail to find this version on any Microsoft site. Nearest seems to be Visual Studio 2017 15.3, but that was apparently released with 19.11.25506.0 ...
- * Please btw also spell out VS as "Visual Studio"
- We have the check in config.tests\winversion and mkspecs/features/platform.conf. Can we remove the check for MSVC_VER version in src/core/config/windows.pri (that still accepts 2015)?
- We also need to update the documentation accordingly: http://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt5-5.11/qtwebengine-platform-notes.html#windows
- We need to mention this in the ChangeLog
