I am using dcef3 in one of my projects. The cef binaries bundled with dcef3 seem to be lagging a bit. Can I simply replace those binaries with the latest version of cef?
I don't think that's necessary for the normal "show html in a browser on a form" functionality. At least I didn't bump into any problems with that when doing exactly the recommended change of components.
Eivind BakkestuenOK so decided to give it a try...I downloaded CEF4Delphi and installed it in my IDE (I am using Delphi 7). However it seems that you can't have both DCEF3 and CEF4Delphi components installed side by side. Basically all my forms using DCEF4 were broken with missing properties...argh!...So I rolled back. What would be the most sensible process for migrating from component to another? Any help on this greatly appreciated!
I think I got most of the way by manually changing the names of the types in the .pas and .dfm files to the CEF4Delphi type names. Then open forms, ignore any errors, check that events are hooked up, check the samples for how many things are done, use the forum for questions (many already answered).
