Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: webengine

I have compiled a framebuffer (without x11 and wayland) image for wandboard-quad with Yocto Jethro. I have used the Freescale Community BSP Jethro branch.The image contains most of the Qt 5.5 components and Qt Web Engine.

The qmake version is 5.5.1 from meta-toolchain-qt5 and Qt Creator is 5.5 as well.

I created the quick nano browser example to test the functionalities. But, Qt Creator gives me this Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: webengine when I cross compile to wandboard. Desktop compile is fine though.

Anyone knows what is wrong?

Edit: I have follow how to set up Qt Creator in this Set Up Instruction

Edit: First of all, Qt WebEngine has 2 versions: the open-source and the licensed one. Based on what ICS people said, there is barely any differences between the 2 versions.

Qt Webengine is not available in the SDK packagegroup-qt5-toolchain-target.bb. Therefore, it does not contain the all the Qt Web Engine Components.

To add Qt WebEngine to the SDK, I have modified the packagegroup-qt5-toolchain-target.bb by adding qtwebengine-dev and qtwebengine-mkspecs

Question: qmake does not recognize Qt Webengine module even all the necessary files are present in the sysroot. How do I fix this?

回答1:

My understanding (sorry no reference to hand), but cross compiling webengine is only supported on the paid for enterprise edition of Qt.

回答2:

I'm not sure it's documented anywhere, but Qt WebEngine is only available on desktop platforms. You might try using the lightweight WebView control instead.

No Wayland or Server, you can compile with support EGLFS. In its add image recipe:

DISTRO_FEATURES_remove = "wayland x11"
DISTRO_FEATURES + = "opengl"

PACKAGECONFIG_GL_pn-qtbase = "gles2 linuxfb"
PACKAGECONFIG [gles2] = "-opengl s2 -eglfs,, virtual / virtual / egl libgles2"
