Change CEF version

If you want to change the version of CEF binary distribution, please follow the instructions:

1. Find Target Version

Find the target version you want from the CEF Automated Builds website: https://cef-builds.spotifycdn.com/index.html.

2. Modify QCefConfig.cmake

Change the CEF version in the CefView/CefViewCore/ CefConfig.cmake file.

Normally you just need to change the first line command:

set(CEF_SDK_VERSION "112.3.0+gb09c4ca+chromium-112.0.5615.165")

set the CEF_SDK_VERSION to the target version you want.

Note! The format here is 112.3.0+gb09c4ca+chromium-112.0.5615.165,not cef_binary_112.3.0+gb09c4ca+chromium-112.0.5615.165_windows64

3. Build QCefView

Build QCefView project as the instructions described in previous section.

⚠ WARNING: If you choose a very early CEF version or a brand new one which introduces breaking changes, you may need to adapt the CefViewCore repo to the target version manually.
