Using QtCreator and QT5 on Windows and "QWebView: no such file or directory" issue

[dexygen]

I'm trying to use QtCreator and QT5 on Windows to create a very basic QWebView. However no matter what I do I cannot get past the error: "QWebView: No such file or directory". I've googled this issue, I've added += webkit to my pro file, and I've tried cleaning and running qmake a number of time but nothing works. Am including contents of my .cpp and .pro file in case I'm doing something wrong somebody can point out -- the code is something I found on the web, and the .pro is mostly boilerplater created by QtCreator. Thanks in advance.

#include <QtGui>
#include <QWebView>
 
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
 
  QApplication app(argc, argv);
 
  QWebView* view = new QWebView;
  view->setUrl(QUrl("http://localhost"));
  view->show();
 
  return app.exec();
}

#include <QtGui>
#include <QWebView>

int main(int argc, char** argv) {

  QApplication app(argc, argv);

  QWebView* view = new QWebView;
  view->setUrl(QUrl("http://localhost"));
  view->show();

  return app.exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

QT       += core gui webkit
 
greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets
 
TARGET = QWebViewGuiTest
TEMPLATE = app
 
SOURCES += main.cpp

QT       += core gui webkit

greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

TARGET = QWebViewGuiTest
TEMPLATE = app

SOURCES += main.cpp

You need:

QT += qtwebkitwidgets

QT += qtwebkitwidgets

I will take a longer look at the URL you provided later today but I tried adding what you suggested to my .pro file and now get this error running qmake:

"Unknown module(s) in QT: qtwebkitwidgets"

Try this

QT +=  webkitwidgets

QT +=  webkitwidgets

Yes, my bad.

QT += webkitwidgets worked, thanks very much!
