Webview is not working in Qt Creator with mingw on Windows

Question

I am using Qt creator 4.11.1 with Qt 5.14.1 and MinGW on Windows I have to open url in webview from QML I followed the below steps:

Added "QT += webkit" in pro file Included "import QtWebKit 1.0" in qml Added below code in same qml WebView { id: idWebview anchors.fill: parent url: "https://www.google.com/" }

It is build successfully but when I run the application getting " module "QtWebKit" is not installed " I tried "import QtWebView 1.0" instead of QtWebKit, getting " module "QtWebView" is not installed "

I have googled about this but didn't figure it out.

Please help me to resolve this issue.

Thank you so much in advance.

Answer 1

QWebView works only with msvc compiler on windows and clang for osx. mingw does not support it as of now.

Answer 2

If you have QT version more than 4.0 use webkitwidget instead of webkit in project file.
