Currently it is hard-coded in the following files. qt-src/mkspecs/qconfig.pri -> line 5 qt-src/mkspecs/features/qt.prf -> lines 39, 69 qt-src/mkspecs/features/symbian/qt.prf -> line 33 It is needed to take this responsibility to QtWebKit. 210641 1 jturcotte 2010-04-09 02:05:40 -0700 The mechanism we want to use for 2.0 is to install over Qt's own install directory if you want the Qt += webkit syntax in your application's pro file. Developers wanting to build against a QtWebKit outside of Qt's SDK can use INCLUDE+=... and LIBS+=... (though this is currenly tedious because of different binary file names on Windows) One of the constraints why its difficult for QtWebKit to take responsibility of this is that qmake is bound to the SDK where it resides and that it is not clear which QtWebKit should be used when Qt += webkit is encountered. The mechanism to compile Qt modules outside of Qt's source tree is still undetermined and should be looked at in the near future releases of Qt. Until then we wanted to keep it simple for QtWebKit. 222308 2 kenneth 2010-05-07 06:14:21 -0700 Belem, are you working on this? 222315 3 rclbelem 2010-05-07 06:25:10 -0700 (In reply to comment #2) > Belem, are you working on this? I started to work on it and I made some changes to the qt prf files to support the possibility of adding an "external" qt module, but stopped to work on other stuff and I do not know if the qt guys have interest in this feature. 222363 4 hausmann 2010-05-07 07:54:30 -0700 (In reply to comment #3) > (In reply to comment #2) > > Belem, are you working on this? > > I started to work on it and I made some changes to the qt prf files to support > the possibility of adding an "external" qt module, but stopped to work on other > stuff and I do not know if the qt guys have interest in this feature. I don't think we want external module support right now. We need to get the module support "inside" working first :) Removing from release blocker. 358619 5 laszlo.gombos 2011-02-26 18:15:30 -0800 +Kristian.
