Multiplatform Htmlviewer

[debritto]

Hi Folks, Is it possible to install HtmlViewer on Linux, Mac OSX and Windows?

For me it's working on Windows but I faced problems trying to install it on Linux.

Best regards, Christian

The branch HtmlViewer-11.6-to-11.7 was compilable and running on Linux some commits ago (0624bedb2123ba33a40d5f50bff4e1a4dbe72ef5). Later commits are not yet tested on Linux and most probably need some (minor) changes. Version 11.7 will be released on July 1st for Delphi and Lazarus, Win and Linux, 32 and 64 bit (Linux without printing as it relies on TMetaFile, which is not available for Linux).

In default of a Mac there is no Mac support.

When I try to install Frameviewer09.lpk () HtmlViewer-11.6) on linux I receive this messages:

Compile package FrameViewer09 11.0: Exit code 256, Errors: 2, Warnings: 1 htmlmisc.pas(308,36) Warning: Symbol "CM_WININICHANGE" is not implemented htmlmisc.pas(569,63) Error: Identifier not found "LPINT" htmlmisc.pas(570,65) Error: Identifier not found "INT_PTR"

Please, could you help me. Your library is VERY important to my app. Best regards

@taldov currently there are no plans to port HtmlViewer to WinCE. Volunteers are welcome, though.
