install CEF4Delphi

[salvadordf]

Hi :

Did you add the "CEF4Delphi\source" directory to the library path ?
I see that the dproj file points to "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\17.0\Bpl\CEF4Delphi.bpl"
Is that directory in your computer ?

The following are default Delphi settings :
Go to the "Tools->Options" menu and open "Environment options->Delphi options->Library" and check the "Package output directory". It should be "$(BDSCOMMONDIR)\Bpl" for the 32Bit platform.
In "Environment options->Environment variables" you should have $(BDSCOMMONDIR) set to "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\17.0"

I hope this helps you

• Open Delphi and click on the "component"->"Install Packages" menu option.
• Select the line with CEF4Delphi and then click "Remove".
• Close Delphi and delete the old DEF4Delphi BPL file. If you copied "libcef.dll" and "chrome_elf.dll" in the windows folder delete them too.
• Open Delphi again and compile CEF4Delphi.

Hi :

You have to follow the instructions given here :

Instead of using CEF4Delphi.dproj you have to use CEF4Delphi_D7.dpk, build the project and then install it.

I've added more detailed installation instructions for Delphi 7.

Don't forget to create the dcu subdirectory.

Thank you for your bug report!

I just updated the Delphi 7 DPK and now there's a new SimpleBrowser DPR for Delphi 7 too.

I'm glad that you could make it work.

I just added an image of the final layout to the main web page :

Btw, a bit question: all these packages (*.pak, *.dll, *.lib) should be included in my final exe application, is it right?
if so, then it's huge size of exe.

As you can see in the picture, you need to include all those files but you can safely delete two of the biggest files : cef_sandbox.lib and libcef.lib.



Remember that you can get an smaller exe if you compile your application in "Release" mode and not in "Debug" mode. I would also recommend "Inno Setup" to create a compressed installer.
