That's great, will be chromium in the three platforms? or webkit in linux /mac?
One thing i found problematic is that ExecuteScript() is asynchronous, in c# you can use async/await but in PB i had to spawn a message loop to make a synchronous version. I hope you found a better solution, don't known if implementing async / await is possible in PB.

Hello Justin: great!great!great!
Even ctrl-shift-i does open development tools!
(Any idea how to bind an external chrome developer via remote debugging? chrome://inspect)
Your implementation is a game changer!
Again: great!
Thanks a lot!!!

Hi HanPBF,
i don't have experience with remote debugging, but it is expained here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/micros ... debugging/
I tried the Android device debugging and it worked as expected, it did not recognize my android phone at first, i had to follow the steps here: (The Update 24 February 2016 part)
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/219 ... plugged-in
Basically i installed the Windows USB driver, the ADB package, and issued 'adb devices' from cmd as explained in the page and it worked.
Is that what you were looking for?

Yes, normally a page shown with a specific port should be enough to remote debug.
But, internal debugger (ctrl-shift-i) should always work.
Thanks!

Updated to 1.0.674-prerelease SDK, see first post.
The prerelease has introduced static linking of the WebView2Loader.dll, it does not work simply importing it in PB because you have to import all the dependencies.
If anyone wants to try, WebView2LoaderStatic.lib it's in the prerelease folder:
Try:
Code: Select all
Import "WebView2LoaderStatic.lib"
CreateCoreWebView2Environment(environment_created_handler.i)
CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions(browserExecutableFolder.s, userDataFolder.s, environmentOptions.i, environment_created_handler.i)
GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionString(browserExecutableFolder.s, versionInfo.i)
CompareBrowserVersions(version1.s, version2.s, result.i)
EndImport
CreateCoreWebView2Environment(0)
And it will show all the unresolved external symbols, maybe someone can fix it.

sounds nice.
one question, how to release the final EXE file to end-users to ensure he can see the webview2 control?

Hi, thanks for the feedback.
I updated to the latest WebView2 SDK 1.0.705.50 / 1.0.781-prerelease, see first post. There are some interesting new apis in the prerelease.
oyster,
Basically you need the WebView2 Runtime installed in the machine and the WebView2Loader.dll from the WebView2 SDK in the executable folder.
The distribution model is explained here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/micros ... stribution
WebView2 Runtime download:
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/m ... /webview2/
