How to use CefSharp?

[Michael]

How to use a browser?

Where I can find these few magic lines to explain? Something like:

1. include ?????.dll in your project

2. using CefSharp; (?)

3. WebView1.Load("www.example.com");

I can't use web browser in my project in WPF!!! (VS2010Exp)

 

I already have the errors after adding libraries and code on the form:

<Window ...

       xmlns:cs="clr-namespace:CefSharp.Wpf;assembly=CefSharp.Wpf" ...>

       <DockPanel>

                    <cs:WebView x:Name="web_view">...

 

error: Type cs:WebView not found. Missing an assembly reference...

But I already added CefSharp.dll and CefSharp.Wpf.dll

 

Thanks in advance for any help!

you need to add the libcef and icudt dlls.

if i try to add them i get this message

at reference to C:\.....\icudt.dll could not be added. Please make sure that the file is accessible and that it is a valid assembly or COM component

for libcef.dll the same

The dlls need to be in the executable path when the project is published. You can add them to the project at the top level and that should work. In visual studio this can be done by right clicking on your project in the solution explorer then click "add" then "existing item".

CefSharp and CefSharp.WinForms( or WPF) should be added as references.

I've already tried that then i get an XamlParseException  when i try to debug

I'm stuck for few hours on the exactly same issue, is anybody can share how to get rid of this?

Thanks.

Hi,

CefSharp depends on a number of files, including libcef.dll and icudt.dll. These are not .NET assemblies but rather unmanaged Win32 DLLs. Therefore you cannot directly reference them from your project, but as previously stated they must exist in your bin\Debug or bin\Release folder when running.

To better understand how this stuff fits together, clone/download the code from Github (either ataranto's repo or mine). There in the Debug and Release folders you see what files are needed to run. (The locales folder and devtools_resources must also be present.)

We know this is a bit awkward; it could possibly be simplified in the future. Anyone wishing to work on these parts: try embedding the unmanaged files as resources in CefSharp and load them manually on startup... Should definitely be doable.

Best regards,

Per

Hi, 

I have tried all the day to make this working, I tried what you said in your message and here https://github.com/perlun/CefSharp/blob/master/README.WPF.md (sorry I missed this readme before posting my first question). But I'm stuck on the same issue. When I run in debug with visual studio I'm getting:  

My debug folder contains:

• locales
• avcodec-54.dll
  
• avformat-54.dll
  
• avutil-51.dll
  
• CefSharp.dll
  
• CefSharp.Wpf.dll
  
• devtools_resources.pak
  
• icudt.dll
  
• libcef.dll
  
• libEGL.dll
  
• libGLESv2.dll

Note if I run "manualy" the exe in the debug folder, it also fails.

As far I understand, it fails to found the dependency CefSharp.Wpf but in Visual the reference is well marked to resolved (as you can see on the screenshot) and if I try a using in code for example, it's well reconized.

I tried with: 

• Visual Studio 2010 C# Express
  
• Visual Studio 2008 C# Express
• Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate

Also I tried to compile your whole sources but again without success.

I'm not a .NET developer so I haven't a good understanding of build process on Windows/with Visual, maybe I missing something obvious here.

Anyway your work looks quite awesome and for now my better option to ingrate a WebGL viewer on Windows.

Ok I found the issue...

It doesn't work with the .NET framework 4 but works fine with .NET framework 3.5.

Is anabody can explain to me what happen? And how I can get this worked with .NET 4 or 4.5?

Thanks, and sorry for the previous messages.

Hi, i am just interested to know how to load libcef.dll from any directory other that Release/Debug folder. Any config settings is required?

Hi,

It could be done, but you would have to use some manual LoadLibrary tricks to get it done. I don't know if anyone has experimented with this, but I'm quite certain it is doable with a bit of effort.

Best regards,
