REDISTRIBUTION
--------------
This binary distribution contains the below components. Components listed under
the "required" section must be redistributed with all applications using CEF.
Components listed under the "optional" section may be excluded if the related
features will not be used.
Add breakpad support (issue #1131). - General usage instructions are available at https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/developers/testing/webkit-layout-tests/using-breakpad-with-content-shell. - Mac: Generate "Chromium Embedded Framework.framework" using a new cef_framework target (the libcef target is now only used on Windows and Linux). Rename "Libraries/libcef.dylib" to "Chromium Embedded Framework". Distribute Release and Debug builds of the "Chromium Embedded Framework.framework" folder as part of the binary distribution. - Mac: Fix the Xcode target compiler setting for the binary distribution so that it no longer needs to be set manually. git-svn-id: https://chromiumembedded.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1524 5089003a-bbd8-11dd-ad1f-f1f9622dbc98

Resources/
Use the same pak files for the Alloy and Chrome runtimes (see issue #2969) Chrome currently uses chrome_100_percent.pak, chrome_200_percent.pak, resources.pak and locales/<locale>.pak files. This change adds CEF resources to those existing pak files and updates the Alloy runtime to use them instead of the previous CEF-specific pak files (cef.pak, cef_100_percent.pak, cef_200_percent.pak, cef_extensions.pak, devtools_resources.pak) which are no longer generated. The addition of Chrome resources results in an ~16% (~4.1MB) increase in total combined pak file size vs. the previous CEF-specific pak files. While a size increase is not ideal for the Alloy runtime, it seems preferable to the alternative of distributing separate (and partially duplicated) pak files for each runtime, which would have added ~9.8MB to the total binary distribution size.
