Android Studio support JCEF

Qodo Gen Plugin uses JCEF (Java Chromium Embedded Framework) to create a webview component in the plugin's tool window. By default, most IntelliJ-based IDEs come with a boot runtime that includes JCEF. However, Android Studio (and some other versions of IntelliJ-based IDEs) utilize a boot runtime lacking JCEF, which prevents the plugin from loading in these environments.

Also in some cases JCEF could persist but not been initialised.

To address this issue:

  1. Navigate to the "Help" -> "Find Action..." and find(type) "Registry". Here disable ide.browser.jcef.sandbox.enable option.

  2. Navigate to the "Help" -> "Find Action..." and find(type) "Choose Boot Runtime for the IDE" dialog. Here, you can select a boot runtime equipped with JCEF.

  3. Restart the IDE.

If the issue persist, please open an issue in our or .
