Last revision Chromium Embedded Framework 3


Where can I find the latest revision of the Chromium Embedded Framework 3 for Delphi? I downloaded it from this page with TortoiseSVN:

http://code.google.com/p/dcef3/

because CEF1 gave too many problems, but it is a very old revision, there is a download of the revision 24, but the latest revision is 823. Could you tell me where to find the latest version for Delphi-XE2?

Thank you very much.


Solution

  • There are three projects that have been mentioned here:

    These are three distinct projects. You cannot compare revision numbers across projects. That's an apples and oranges comparison. You compare revision 24 of dcef3 with revision 823 of some other project. That comparison is simply meaningless.

    I suspect that some of the confusion is because the dcef3 and delphichromiumembedded projects depend upon chromiumembedded. So you may see, in the dcef3 and delphichromiumembedded projects, mentions of chromiumembedded revision numbers. This is indeed confusing and you need to keep a clear head when navigating these projects.

    The project that you are interested in is dcef3. And so you should use the latest revision which is, as of today, revision 24.

    I have to say that this is a marvellous project. It's incredible that we can pull down this code from an svn repo, build the source immediately, and in less than a minute have a functioning Chromium web browser inside a VCL form, from which I can edit this very post. Bravo!
