This is from the community wiki: https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source/Windows "Currently, Craft supports both the MinGW and Microsoft Visual Studio (msvc) compiler. While MinGW can be installed by Craft, Visual Studio <https://www.visualstudio.com/> must be installed independently by the user." Thanks for the link Aleix, I'll jump on that mailing list too. I assume then "Craft supports both Mingw..." means mingw is supported on unix-like platforms? > > Chris > Rebel Software <http://www.rebel.com.au> > On 27/07/2020 11:04 am, Aleix Pol wrote: > > Hi Russell, > Adding the KDE Windows mailing list, in case they can help you. > > Best of luck! > Aleix > > On Mon, Jul 27, 2020 at 1:07 AM Russell Haley <russ.ha...@gmail.com> > <russ.ha...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm trying to build on WIndows 10 using mingw and I am getting the following > error: > > Craft : C:\Users\russh\CraftRoot > Version : master > ABI : windows-mingw_64-gcc > Download directory : C:\Users\russh\CraftRoot\download > C:\Users\russh\CraftRoot> craft kdevelop > Craft : C:\Users\russh\CraftRoot > Version : master > ABI : windows-mingw_64-gcc > Download directory : C:\Users\russh\CraftRoot\download > C:\Users\russh\CraftRoot\etc\blueprints\locations\craft-blueprints-kde\extragear\kdevelop\kdevelop\kdevelop.py > failed: > extragear/kdevelop/kdevelop requries libs/qt5/qtwebengine, but it is not > supported on 2 > > I'm following the instructions found here: > https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source/Windows > > Any advice other than installing VC++ would be appreciated?
