Project still current?

[Ryan Breen]

Came across this and found it very interesting. I wanted to try basing a desktop GUI application around it, but it appears to have been quite a while since there have been any updates. Is this no longer under active development?

In the recent weeks I've been updating my CEF based open source projects. PHP Desktop was already updated. CEF Python is under works right now. CEF2go and CEF C API are next on the list. In CEF2go I will definitely want to evaluate a new approach, to use the C++ API of CEF (Issue #4). Currently using the C API of CEF.

I see there are some forks and lots of new code in forks, but I haven't seen so far no pull requests ;)

I think the first things to do are:
1. Restructure files/dirs to allow for importing as Go package #21: https://github.com/cztomczak/cef2go/issues/21
2. Maybe make the C++ include/ directory as a submodule #12: https://github.com/cztomczak/cef2go/issues/12
3. Work on new API and update to latest CEF

EDIT: others:
- use Tabs for indentation? Seems like this is a standard in Go. Personally I don't like tabs, they are problematic.

What's the problem with tabs? I always use tabs for indentation and use gofmt for formatting.

this sounds pretty good.
- yes. updating CEF would be first and check API.
- test on go 1.7 is important now since it was just released.
- yes i think importing as a go package is important. Not vital though. I often just do go get -v ghghg/... to force it.

grab me if you need help !!

Hey, it's been few months since this thread was started, any updates on the "rewrite"? Github repo is still 2-3 years as dead.

I am also interested in knowing if this project is still current, as I'm building some new projects in Go.

Currently most of my free time I devote to the CEF Python open source project. This is not going to change in the next few months. You can take a look at forks (links in README) that support newer CEF versions. But these also seem to haven't been updated in the last year.
