How to include QwebEngineView without getting an error

Question

Question is simple; I get an error "Unknown module QWebEngineView" when I write the line Qt += QWebEngineView in .pro file.

How to get rid of this ?
I have tried many solutions but still got the error when compiling. If you got a solution please explain it entirely step by step. I run Qt 5.10.1 with Ming32 5.30.

Its the only compilator that works for me or is detected. If you have a solution i'm taking it. — Shishigami Reishin, Jun 04 '18 at 21:45
install visual studio and that does support QtWebEngine, but unfortunately you can not use it. — eyllanesc, Jun 05 '18 at 02:16

Try to use msys2 project that contains mingw64 with patches for qt5.

Write in your .pro file

QT += webenginewidgets

Add

 #include <QWebEngineView>

in file that will use QWebEngineView class

Even if you include what you indicate is not going to solve the problem, the error is caused because QtWebEngine is not available in mingw – eyllanesc Jun 04 '18 at 21:16
he could use msys2 with mingw64. it has patches to enable build qtwebengine. – Andrey Semenov Jun 05 '18 at 08:32
That you must indicate in your answer. :) – eyllanesc Jun 05 '18 at 12:53
I installed msys2 with mingw64 for qt and it work. But how do I include webengine now ? It says "unknown module" – Shishigami Reishin Jun 08 '18 at 13:44
There are 3 modules to work with webengine in qt. https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebengine-modules.html – Andrey Semenov Jun 08 '18 at 15:56
