QtWebEngine: new recipe

[kenmays]

The Qt WebEngine submodule library to render web content. Qt WebEngine integrates Google Chromium's fast moving web capabilities into Qt.

Help wanted: Haiku integration of Qt WebEngine.
See: https://wiki.qt.io/QtWebEngine/Porting_from_QtWebKit

Ref: #2512
Support: https://wiki.qt.io/QtWebEngine

NOTE: W-I-P (no merge), help wanted

Can you please provide a buildlog to get a ~ feeling about it? To see, whats missing, where it breaks.
Maybe we can give you some hints during your journey.

[extrowerk]

Please do not add unrelated patches. If they arent about Haiku support, they shouldn’t be here at this stage. I mean, let us get it work first, then and only then should we start to pimp it.

[KapiX]

And don't edit them by hand. They will likely not apply and the next person is left wondering why there is a problem.

My experiments: https://gist.github.com/KapiX/8502596ef66813195cf8d2bec7393cd7

[extrowerk]

@kenmays: can you please incorporate the patches from KapiX and the cosmetic fixes from alaviss?
That would spare plenty time for the peope who are interested in this WIP recipe.

[KapiX]

I have played with it a bit more and got some stuff to compile, but without various ports it's not feasible.
breakpad is the most important I think, since it's hard to rip out (if not impossible).

Will update the gist soon.

[waddlesplash]

Why? AFAICT it's just used for automated crash reporting and the like; we should be able to just disable that stuff.

[KapiX]

Well, we're not. I certainly didn't see any switches to disable it. If it's not enabled (and it is not by default) other targets complain about missing dependencies.

[KapiX]

I stand corrected. I have managed to disable it. Updated gist makes it build up to QtWebEngineCore linking, but there are a bunch of unresolved references.

[return]

Is there any update on this? QtWebEngine is a required component for several Qt based browsers such as Falkon, Otter Browser, etc.

@extrowerk The source branch for this PR has been deleted (says unknown repository). So I don't think that the fixes can updated by the author and we might need a new PR for this one with the fixes included.

[extrowerk]

@return : then we should close this. Please, guys, use the #2512 page then.
