How to build static version of Qt with ICU and OpenSSL linked

For Windows platform and VS developers ONLY !!!

You have to install Active Perl, Python 2 and Visual Studio first.

Build static version of ICU

32-bit example:

  1. Download the latest MSYS2 and install it. I assume you have installed it to it's default location "C:\msys64".
  2. Open MSYS2 MSYS shell and execute the following commands: 
    pacman -Syu
    Close the shell window forcely and open MSYS2 MSYS shell again, execute the following commands: 
    pacman -Su
  3. Open MSYS2 MinGW 32-bit shell and execute the following commands: 
    pacman -S $MINGW_PACKAGE_PREFIX-make
  4. Rename "C:\msys64\usr\bin\link.exe" to "link.exe.bak" (only if you have this file), "C:\msys64\mingw32\bin\mingw32-make.exe" to "make.exe".
  5. Download the latest ICU source code package and extract it to anywhere you like. I assume you have extracted it to "C:\ICU\src".
  6. Open cmd shell and execute the following commands (I assume you have installed VS2017 Community to it's default localtion "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community"): 
    call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" x86
call "C:\msys64\msys2_shell.cmd" -mingw32 -use-full-path
    Then execute the following commands: 
    cd /C/ICU/src/source
./runConfigureICU MSYS/MSVC --enable-static --disable-shared --prefix=$PWD/../../icu4c-x86-static-msvc2017 CFLAGS=-MT CXXFLAGS=-MT
make -j4 && make install

Build static version of OpenSSL

Just use the script I offered.

Build static version of Qt

  1. Download the latest Qt source code package and extract it to anywhere you like. I assume you have extracted it to "C:\Qt\src".
  2. Open "C:\Qt\src\qtbase\mkspecs\common\msvc-desktop.conf", replace all "-MD" with "-MT" and add "U_STATIC_IMPLEMENTATION" to "DEFINES +=".
  3. Use the script I offered to generate the batch script file.
  4. Open the generated .bat file, add the following lines to it and put them to their proper position (you may have to change a little bit if necessary): 
    SET "_ICU_DIR=C:\ICU\icu4c-static"
SET "_OPENSSL_DIR=C:\OpenSSL\openssl-static"
SET "PATH=%_ICU_DIR%\bin;%_OPENSSL_DIR%\bin;%PATH%"
CALL "configure.bat" -icu ICU_PREFIX="%_ICU_DIR%" ICU_LIBS="-lsicudt -lsicuin -lsicuuc -lAdvapi32" -openssl-linked OPENSSL_PREFIX="%_OPENSSL_DIR%" OPENSSL_LIBS="-llibcrypto -llibssl -lgdi32"

NOTE

If you have compiler errors and the whole compiling process stopped, don't worry, it's OK, just close the batch script window and rerun it.
