WebBrowser replacement

[alanvl]

We are currently using a WebBrowser control on one of our forms.

Unfortunately, it is using an interface to an older version of IE, and some of the web site functions now available don’t appear to be supported, so, it is time to upgrade.

We have investigated options and come up with WebView (Edge based) and EO.WebBrowser (uses the same core Google's Chrome).

The issue we are having is that we don’t know how to implement these in Native Jade (or if indeed they can be).

We imported the packages into Visual Studio with the misconception that this my make them visible to the Jade External Component Import process – it didn’t.

Has anyone successfully used either of these in Jade AND / OR can anyone advise, in “dummies” guide language, how we may get either of these into our Jade System for use on our Jade form.

Any help greatly appreciated.

In order to be used in JADE you'll need an ActiveX or .NET control.

If the packages don't come with either of those then you'll have to make your own. Nowadays it's probably easier to create a .NET control than an ActiveX one.

Create a new .NET control project, import the WebView package, expose the methods and properties you're going to want to access from JADE, build the project, import the DLL that is created into JADE.
