Future plans

The future plans for this project include :

  • Create a Firemonkey demo with accelerated "off-screen" mode (also known as OSR mode). CEF allows you to use a DirectX texture in OSR mode but we still use the raw bitmap information found in the "OnPaint" event.
  • Investigate if we can use "Views" instead of a reparented form in Firemonkey. The SimpleFMXBrowser demo uses a TFMXWindowParent to host a browser but it should be possible to use a View directly.
  • Add Linux support in Firemonkey. CEF4Delphi supports Linux in Lazarus/FPC but I can't even test it in Delphi because I only have a Delphi Pro license and Linux support in Firemonkey requires Delphi Enterprise.
  • Add MacOS support. CEF4Delphi received some code contributions to build it with a MacOS target in Delphi but it still needs a lot more code.
