CEF Forum

I am trying to create an assembly from which I only need libcef.dll to replace it in a program that uses CEF without third party codec support. But when the execution of step 6 with this code (below) occurs, after a while the command line is closed without any message. However, the size of the folder is close to 100GB and probably it should be so.

Code: Select all

set GN_DEFINES=is_official_build=true proprietary_codecs=true ffmpeg_branding=Chrome
set GYP_MSVS_VERSION=2019
python ..\automate\automate-git.py --download-dir=E:\code\chromium_git --depot-tools-dir=E:\code\depot_tools --minimal-distrib --no-distrib-archive --no-debug-build --branch=4472

Then I perform step 7 with the code (below) and the window closes just as suddenly. Folders and files appear, but "c: \ code \ chromium_git \ chromium \ src \ out \ Debug_GN_x86 \ cef.sln" is not there.

Code: Select all

set GN_DEFINES=is_component_build=true
# Use vs2017 or vs2019 as appropriate.
set GN_ARGUMENTS=--ide=vs2019 --sln=cef --filters=//cef/*
call cef_create_projects.bat

I'm trying to complete step 8, and I get this message:


Please help me figure it out.

Re-run step 7 from a cmd.exe console and check the output for any errors.

Did you install the required Windows SDK version at the default location?

Yes, this is probably the problem. I didn't write the paths.
Thank you!

I installed VS by default, but the same error. What else should you pay attention to? Installed with required components.

The Windows SDK is a separate install.
