Resources for study, what is the difference between CEF4Delphi and WebView4Delphi?

Post by polass »

Hey,
I'm just getting started with WebView4Delphi, I used TembeddedWebBrowser before. But some web pages stopped working completely with EWB, e.g.

Code: Select all

www.sreality.cz
and others. I'm having a particularly hard time understanding the different style of working with WV4D (see sending messages and catching them).

I mainly use the attached DEMOS at WebView4Delphi for studying.
Can you advise other simple resources to use?
In particular, I don't understand function parameters and their usage, resources

Code: Select all

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/reference 
I don't really understand ...
Then of course

Code: Select all

https://stackoverflow.com/
but there's not much there.

What is the difference between CEF4Delphi and WebView4Delphi?
Thanks.

Read this first :
https://www.briskbard.com/index.php?lang=en&pageid=webview

Then read the official WebView2 documentation :
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/

CEF4Delphi is a Delphi wrapper for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) and WebView4Delphi is a wrapper for Microsoft Edge WebView2.

Read this for more details about the differences :
