Chromium Embedded Framework (cef3) for IMX6(dl) yocto

[florianvoit]

Hi everybody!

I am trying to build the example app "cefsimple" of the chromium embedded framework for some days now without succeeding.

I’m using yocto and the cef3 recipe (OpenEmbedded Metadata Index - cef3 ).

When i compile i get the following error:

I tried to set the plattform manually simply by writing

#define LINUX

in eglvivante.h which successfully compiled, but when i start cefsimple it returns the error:

[0914/152322:FATAL:surface_factory_ozone.cc(29)] Check failed: impl_. No SurfaceFactoryOzone implementation set.

When i compile chromium for the platform, everything works fine, even hardware acceleration.

Has somebody been successful compiling cef3 for the imx6? Any pointers?

Best regards,

Florian Voit

Hello Florian Voit,

Perhaps another user may be able to shed some light on this but I haven't heard of anyone building this Framework for the i.MX6. This recipe is not part of the BSP release and it´s possible that there are conflicting dependencies especially with regards to the graphic libraries.
