Sorry about this, but I must vent a little here; I have been trying to use CEF for about a week now and after having the build fail at various steps on three Ubuntu systems (multiple hours lost), I was able to secure a droplet with 32 cores and 64Gb of RAM which is able to build following the steps on
https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... QuickStart up to the first part of #10 (also the suid link is broken on this page). So starting with both out/Debug.. and out/Release contents of which I only need release artifacts, I would absolutely LOVE to have anyone explain why I cannot build a `libcef_dll_wrapper.a` that does not throw a malformed archive error when I try to use it in my application build process. Is there a trick? Was it too hard to include the CMakeLists.txt in a "usable" form to cmake the static file? I've even gone so far as to use `ar` directly on the libcef_dll_wrappr .o files and that also fails as a .a file, but at least its not malformed! So in closing, any guru or wizard that has managed to get a good useable build of the libcef_dll_wrapper.a, I would be grateful for any pointers, but preferably a solution to this incredible mess of a build scenario. Have a great Wednesday all!
