How to embed cefsharp to winforms

[Ribhararnus Pracutian]

First, I'm web developer. I'm new in C# application, I've successfully added cefsharp to reference, now I'm confused how to embed cefsharp into winforms ?

Anyone can you tell me the simple code how to do that?

[Gerculy Robert]

 public WebView web_view;
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            var settings = new CefSharp.Settings
            {
                PackLoadingDisabled = true,
            };
            if (CEF.Initialize(settings))
            {
                web_view = new WebView("http://google.com", new CefSharp.BrowserSettings());
                web_view.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
                toolStripContainer1.ContentPanel.Controls.Add(web_view);
            }

        }

Note to add toolStripContainer1 to your form.

 

[Ribhararnus Pracutian]

This is my code Form1.cs :

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using CefSharp.WinForms;

using CefSharp;

namespace WindowsFormsApplication1

{

    public partial class mainForm : Form

    {

        WebView webView;

        public mainForm()

        {

            InitializeComponent();

        }

        private void mainForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            var settings = new CefSharp.Settings

            {

                PackLoadingDisabled = true,

            };

            if (CEF.Initialize(settings))

            {

                webView = new WebView("http://google.com", new CefSharp.BrowserSettings());

                webView.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

                this.Controls.Add(webView);

            }

        }

    }

}

Sorry I'm very super noob, don't know how to develop windows application.

Thanks Gerculy, but I can't build your project :

Could not load file or assembly 'CefSharp.dll' or one of its dependencies. The specified module could not be found.

How to fix that?

[Gerculy Robert]

I had the same problem with your project. You could try to delete CefSharp.dll from references and add it again.

- Add again

Still the same :D I don't know that desktop programming is so complicated like this.

Is not always that bad :P I'm new like you here, so there's nothing I can do more. Create a new project based on what I send you.

It took me 2 hours to make it work. ( after watching it for one week, I mean, I saw it was a nice framework but I have no idea how to use it) Today I decide to try again and I made it.

Don't give up :P
