Converting from WebBrowser to BrowserComponent

[mcw]

Haven't built my apps for some time and discovered a lot of deprecated classes and methods.

I am trying to switch from WebBrowser  to BrowserComponent.

What is the BrowserComponent equivalent of WebBrowser.createDataURI(_coverImage, "image/png");

Thanks,

Martin

I don't think there's an equivalent.  WebBrowser is simply a wrapper around BrowserComponent that will fall back to the old HTMLComponent on platforms that don't support a native web view.  But all of the platforms we target now, have a native webview so that class has become redundant for the most part - aside from the odd useful utility method like createDataURI.

We should probably make an equivalent in either BrowserComponent or another one of the CN1 utility classes.

Thanks Steve.

Is it OK to use WebBrowser, it is not one of the classes being deleted in 5.0 right?

WebBrowser is not being deleted in 5.0.
