revBrowserOpenCEF ?
Will revBrowserOpenCEF be available on iOS?
Re: revBrowserOpenCEF ?
Hi jihem,
CEF (chromium embedded framework) is desktop only so will not be ported to mobile. More information on this here-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_E ... _Framework
If you wish to have a browser in your mobile app then you will need to implement a native browser instance (e.g.mobileControlCreate)

Re: revBrowserOpenCEF ?
Hi,
Thanks for this answer.
I build apps for Desktop and Mobile. I don't want to manage two applications for the same thing (even if they share a good part of the code). So my code contains a lot of :
- if environment() is "mobile" then...
- if envitonment() is "desktop" then...
Why not offer the same framework for mobile and desktop ? with specific methods only when needed ?
Livecode could wrap the complexity when the target is choosen.
I think this could be done as a library... May be I will put my hands into...
Kind regards,
jihem

Hi jihem,
The CEF framework currently supports only Mac/Win/Linux and this is why it is not part of our mobile platforms.
I believe we will soon be looking to unify our browser options with a LiveCode 8 widget. This means that you will only need to use a single "widget" to bring web browser support to your app (for all platforms)

Linux? Will this be in v7.x for Linux? If so, very exciting.LCNeil wrote:The CEF framework currently supports only Mac/Win/Linux

Hi Richard,
Our dev, Ian, has been hard at work integrating CEF for linux. We are hoping for a 7 cycle release but if we miss that, it will definitely be in 8.

Re: revBrowserOpenCEF ?
Thanks, Neil. Given what we all hope will be a long and patient development cycle for v8, I'm praying for a v7 version of revBrowser for Linux.LCNeil wrote:Our dev, Ian, has been hard at work integrating CEF for linux.

Can I send Ian supercharged coffee to help that along?
