Qt: [Feature request] Support qtwebview on Windows

Created on 26 Sep 2017  路  6Comments  路  Source: therecipe/qt

We have a project that uses qtwebview but as you said in https://github.com/therecipe/qt/issues/455#issuecomment-330643831:

the WebView and the WebEngine are not supported on windows atm

Do you have a plan to support it?

Most helpful comment

The WebEngine/WebView modules should work on windows now.

To get this working you will need to install the 64 bit MSVC 2017 built of Qt and build yourself a custom Go version with these patches https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/133946
Instructions how you can do this can be found here now

And there is also a new docker image available called windows_64_shared_msvc which can be used as well.

Yes maybe with Go 1.11, once these issues are resolved: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/17014 and https://github.com/golang/go/issues/20982

Go 1.11 is out. Any updates here?

@petergloor There was some promising activity recently: https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/133946
I will look into this.

@therecipe windows not supporting the webview is one of the only major missing features I鈥檝e yet to stumble across since using this binding, so well done thus far but I hope you can support windows soon.

any update on this?
