Eliminates the requirements for .Net 4.5.2, the application exe is used as the browsersubprocess. Additional manual import of CefSharp.BrowserSubProcess.Core is required see csproj file for example TODO: OffScreen version is crashing on exit so it's been updated, it just isn't using itself as the BrowserSubProcess
CefSharp.MinimalExample
Minimal example of how the CefSharp library can be used using the official Nuget packages with .NET Framework
projects (CefSharp.MinimalExample.sln) and .NET Core projects (CefSharp.MinimalExample.netcore.sln).
Includes examples for
- WinForms
- WPF
- OffScreen
For a more complete example of each project see the main CefSharp repository.
.NET Core support
As of version 75.1.142, the CefSharp NuGet packages can be used with .NET Core 3.0 projects (as shown by the examples). However, the current versions have some limitations that you should be aware of:
- The target machine still needs to have .NET Framework 4.5.2 or higher installed, as the
CefSharp.BrowserSubprocess.exeis still used. - The project file needs to update the references of
CefSharp.WinForms/CefSharp.WPF/CefSharp.OffScreen, as well asCefSharp.CoreandCefSharpto use<Private>true</Private>, as otherwise the CoreCLR would not load these libraries as they would not be specified in the.deps.jsonfile. See the netcore.csproj for an example. - When publishing a self-contained app using a runtime identifier
win-x64orwin-x86, you need to set thePlatformproperty tox64orx86; as otherwise it would beAnyCPUand the check in the.targetsfile of the NuGet package would fail.
Example:- x86:
dotnet publish -f netcoreapp3.0 -r win-x86 -p:Platform=x86 - x64:
dotnet publish -f netcoreapp3.0 -r win-x64 -p:Platform=x64
- x86:
It is possible to publish the application as single EXE file by adding -p:PublishSingleFile=true.
