JCEF Browser does not content; only blank screen on Eclipse
Posted: Thu Jan 20, 2022 9:29 pm
I have been trying to get the Java version of Chromium Embedded Framework (JCEF) to work on Eclipse for some time. I am able to verify that the library files are working correctly, since if I run the included sample class files on the VM, the program runs and some webpage is displayed. However, if I run the program from Eclipse, the program will always display a blank window. I am able to verify that the library binary jcef_helper.exe is successfully run, but not matter how I link the .jar files and other library files, the webpage will not generate and there will always be a blank screen. I cannot pinpoint the issue here. I tried specifying path, adding the JCEF library path of my OS environment variables PATH field to no avail. I have followed the documentation, even sample files behave the same way when I have anything to do with compilation/ run. One note of interest, my Eclipse console will display this during run:
Perhaps there is a thread issue?
