There’s a new version of Awesomium on the way: http://www.khrona.com/2010/04/08/new-experimental-build-awesomium-v1-6-alpha/. Currently it’s an alpha, but let me know if you’d like to see my WebBrowser wrapper updated for Awesomium 1.6 alpha, or if you’d prefer to wait for release. Looks like it’ll mean larger binaries, so maybe it’ll be worth branching into two versions?
Suggestions welcome
(comment, email, whatever).

Hi Chris, I looked at the announcement and 1.6 seems to be a pretty big improvement!
I vote for it!
BTW, if you feel it might be useful, someone already did a .NET wrapper around 1.6 alpha but without the WPF goodies here: awesomiumdotnet.codeplex.com

Hi Chris !
I hope you will update your Awesomium Wrapper with 1.6 but if it’s too much work to make it both for alpha and final release of Awesomium 1.6, just don’t …
But if you can, It would be great

Hello !
I’m a big fan of your work Chris, and i too would really love to see a port of this v 1.6 of Awesomium.
I use v 1.5 in one of my magnets called Webnet (http://myboard-online.com/2009/12/12/webnet-just-hit-the-store/) and it really is Awesome !!!!

Hello Chris,
Do you know if you will make a new wrapper for Awesomium 1.6 Beta?
Thanks

Damien – I’ve got it mostly completed for .NET 4 (and pending a different issue on 3.5)… but I’m waiting for a response from Adam/Khrona about a couple Awesomium issues I’ve found. Hopefully will have something soon

I spent almost a day on trying to make it work but no luck so far. I request authors to make it more simple.

Anyone have any tips on using awesomium 1.6.5 to access dynamic http? We’d like to use it at work, but it can’t load the one page we need (it’s on an internal page, so I can’t share it with anyone, but it’s all dynamic HTML). I created a simple xaml window and put a WebControl in there. I pointed the Source to our page, and… nothing. It opens fine in Chrome, but nothing shows up in Awesomium. I tried all of the samples, and none of them worked, except for the one on this page.
It looks like a great product, and we’d like to use this in our shop, but I can’t get past square one. I should warn you that I’m a C# guy with no web experience whatsoever, so I might be doing something glaringly stupid, but, as I said, I can point Chrome to the link, and it fires right up. Ditto for FF, etc. If I open any of the sample browsers/WebControls, nothing.
Thanks!
Tony
