WebView Adobe Air Native Extension for OSX 10.10+, Windows Desktop, iOS 9.0+ and Android19+. This ANE provides access to a more modern webview from AIR.
Much time, skill and effort has gone into this. Help support the project
There is now a new dependency ANE for OSX (required Swift libraries). This can be included on Windows without effect.
This is included in \native_extension\ane\CommonDependencies.ane.
It must be included along with the WebView ANE in your projects.
It also must be created before the webView.

private var webView:WebViewANE = new WebViewANE();The Windows version utilises the CefSharp WinForms version of Chromium Embedded Framework.
- Download cef_binaries_x86.zip from the latest release tag
- Unzip the contents of cef_binaries_x86.zip into the bin folder of your AIRSDK.
- Copy the contents of the "cef_sharp_libs_x86" folder into the bin folder of your AIRSDK.
The location of this will vary depending on your IDE. These dlls and other cef files need to reside in the folder where adl.exe is run from.

CEF was built with MS Visual Studio 2013. As such your machine (and user's machines) will need to have Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x86) runtime installed. http://download.microsoft.com/download/2/E/6/2E61CFA4-993B-4DD4-91DA-3737CD5CD6E3/vcredist_x86.exe
-
This ANE was built with MS Visual Studio 2015. As such your machine (and user's machines) will need to have Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable (x86) runtime installed. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
-
This ANE also uses .NET 4.6 Framework. As such your machine (and user's machines) will need to have to have this installed. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48130

For release builds, the cef_binaries_x86 and cef_sharp_libs_x86 files need to be packaged in the same folder as your exe.
It is highly recommended you package your app for release using an installer.
Please see the win_installer folder for an example Inno Setup project which handles .NET 4.6 and MSVC2013 and MSV2015 dependencies. -
The Cef view and processes can only be attached once to your app. Therefore only one instance can be created and used.
The Adobe AIRSDK 64bit BETA is available here: https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashruntimes/air/win64SDK/AIRSDK_Compiler.zip
If you are using the 64bit version follow the above instructions replacing x86 with x64 where applicable
The OSX version utilises the native WKWebView.
Dependencies
From the command line cd into /example-mobile and run:
bash get_ios_dependencies.shThe example project can be run on the Simulator from IntelliJ using AIR 26. AIR 27 contains a bug when packaging.
The example project can be run on the device from IntelliJ using AIR 27. AIR 27 now correctly signs the included Swift frameworks and therefore no resigning tool is needed.
ADT is not currently producing a valid ipa for the App Store.
Please see the README here for package script
This is a minor inconvenience and only needs to be done when your app is ready to go to the App Store.
You will need
- Xcode 8.3 / AppCode
- IntelliJ IDEA
- AIR 26 and AIR 27
The Android version utilises the native WebView.
