You use the TEdgeBrowser component in much the same way as you would use a TWebBrowser, indeed a number of methods and properties are similar to those of TWebBrowser’s methods and properties. You will need to copy this DLLs in your build target folders or someone on the search path. Once you have installed the package, it will copy in your RAD Studio redistributable folder the DLL required by your application, one for 32-bit apps and one for 64-bit apps (both are called WebView2Loader.dll). Once you have installed Edge (Canary version) to install the required Microsoft WebView2 package you open the GetIt package manager window in the RAD Studio 10.4 IDE and search for the corresponding entry, as indicated below: Both are Microsoft requirements and binaries, and they might change with the official release. As for the WebView2, all you need id a DLL that currently needs to be distributed along with your program. The WebView2 control, currently available through NuGet at or via a matching GetIt package managerįor the time being, Edge Canary is requirement applies to you compiling and executing the application on your development machine and also on the end user’s machine.The Microsoft Edge Chromium-based browser currently available from ( Canary channel version whilst the WebView2 SDK is in pre-release).Because of this you need to ensure that these items are installed on your computer before you can run an application that uses it: Also it is still not officially released. TEdgeBrowser Requirementsīecause TWebBrowser uses the Operating System-supplied Internet Explorer WebBrowser browser control there is no preparation required it will work wherever Windows has the Internet Explorer control available. On the contrary, Microsoft Edge is not an Operating System component (not yet, anyway). However TWebBrowser remains in the VCL component set, with some notable changes (see below). TEdgeBrowser supersedes TWebBrowser, which uses the Internet Explorer WebBrowser browser control. The new TEdgeBrowser component wraps Microsoft WebView2 component. RAD Studio 10.4 is going to bring support for working with web content through a new Chromium-based Edge browser control in VCL applications.
