_uc_WebView - Web view control

The WEB view control (_uc_WebView) provides a plug in that allows displaying web sites. The URL is provided via the data source, which has to refer to a string value. When changing the data source and or when the control receives a refresh or fill event from the GUI framework, the updated URL in the data source will be displayed. The control follows links clicked on a WEB site.

Thus, the control provides a good mean for displaying WEB sites for URL stored in a database (e.g. a system documentation, but also for displaying WEB-Sites in an application.

In order to run the WebView control, the Qt WEB kit has to be installed and the QtWebKit4 library must be available in a path accessible by the system dynamic library loader (e.g. a path defined in the PATH environment variable).
