The client can optionally wait or terminate the render process.
Expose process exit codes via OnRenderProcessTerminated and
CefGetExitCode (fixes#2126).
cefclient: Add a new https://tests/hang page for testing hang behavior.
cefclient: Move message and resource handling to a new BaseClientHandler
class to support loading of test pages in default Chrome UI windows.
- mac: Xcode 14.0 with macOS SDK 13.0 is now required.
- Remove CefRequestHandler::OnQuotaRequest because persistent quota is no
longer supported (see https://crbug.com/1208141)
This functionality stopped being relevant after the removal of Flash support
in January 2021. The last remaining PPAPI plugin (PDF viewer) will switch to
a non-plugin implementation (PdfUnseasoned) in M100.
This change allows the client to directly send and receive DevTools
protocol messages (send method calls, and receive method results and
events) without requiring a DevTools front-end or remote-debugging
session.
This change includes additional supporting changes:
- Add a new CefRequestHandler::OnDocumentAvailableInMainFrame
callback (see issue #1454).
- Add a CefParseJSON variant that accepts a UTF8-encoded buffer.
- Add a `--devtools-protocol-log-file=<path>` command-line flag for
logging protocol messages sent to/from the DevTools front-end
while it is displayed. This is useful for understanding existing
DevTools protocol usage.
- Add a new "libcef_static_unittests" executable target to support
light-weight unit tests of libcef_static internals (e.g. without
requiring exposure via the CEF API). Files to be unittested are
placed in the new "libcef_static_unittested" source_set which is
then included by both the existing libcef_static library and the
new unittests executable target.
- Linux: Remove use_bundled_fontconfig=false, which is no longer
required and causes unittest build errors (see issue #2424).
This change also adds a cefclient demo for configuring offline mode
using the DevTools protocol (fixes issue #245). This is controlled
by the "Offline mode" context menu option and the `--offline`
command-line switch which will launch cefclient in offline mode. When
cefclient is offline all network requests will fail with
ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED and navigator.onLine will return false when
called from JavaScript in any frame. This mode is per-browser so
newly created browser windows will have the default mode. Note that
configuring offline mode in this way will not update the Network tab
UI ("Throtting" option) in a displayed DevTools front-end instance.
When NetworkService is enabled requests created using CefFrame::CreateURLRequest
will call CefRequestHandler::GetAuthCredentials for the associated browser after
calling CefURLRequestClient::GetAuthCredentials if that call returns false.
Implementation notes:
- Chromium change: CookieMonster::SetCookieableSchemes needs to be called
immediately after the CookieMonster is created in NetworkContext::
ApplyContextParamsToBuilder. Add a Profile::GetCookieableSchemes method and
NetworkContextParams.cookieable_schemes member (set from
ProfileNetworkContextService::CreateNetworkContextParams) to support that.
- Chromium change: Add a ContentBrowserClient::HandleExternalProtocol variant
that exposes additional NetworkService request information.
- GetResourceResponseFilter is not yet implemented.
API changes:
- Resource-related callbacks have been moved from CefRequestHandler to a new
CefResourceRequestHandler interface which is returned via the
GetResourceRequestHandler method. If the CefRequestHandler declines to handle
a resource it can optionally be handled by the CefRequestContextHandler, if
any, associated with the loading context.
- The OnProtocolExecution callback has been moved from CefRequestHandler to
CefResourceRequestHandler and will be called if a custom scheme request is
unhandled.
- Cookie send/save permission callbacks have been moved from CefRequestHandler
and CefResourceHandler to CefResourceRequestHandler.
- New methods added to CefResourceHandler that better match NetworkService
execution sequence expectations. The old methods are now deprecated.
- New methods added to CefRequest and CefResponse.
Known behavior changes with the NetworkService implementation:
- Modifying the |new_url| parameter in OnResourceRedirect will no longer result
in the method being called an additional time (likely a bug in the old
implementation).
- Modifying the request URL in OnResourceResponse would previously cause a
redirect. This behavior is now deprecated because the NetworkService does not
support this functionality when using default network loaders. Temporary
support has been added in combination with CefResourceHandler usage only.
- Other changes to the request object in OnResourceResponse will now cause the
request to be restarted. This means that OnBeforeResourceLoad, etc, will be
called an additional time with the new request information.
- CefResponse::GetMimeType will now be empty for non-200 responses.
- Requests using custom schemes can now be handled via CefResourceRequestHandler
with the same callback behavior as builtin schemes.
- Redirects of custom scheme requests will now be followed as expected.
- Default handling of builtin schemes can now be disabled by setting
|disable_default_handling| to true in GetResourceRequestHandler.
- Unhandled requests (custom scheme or builtin scheme with default handling
disabled) will fail with an CefResponse::GetError value of
ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME.
- The CefSchemeHandlerFactory::Create callback will now include cookie headers.
To test:
- Run `cefclient --enable-network-service`. All resources should load
successfully (this tests the transparent proxy capability).
- All tests pass with NetworkService disabled.
- The following tests pass with NetworkService enabled:
- CookieTest.*
- FrameTest.* (excluding .*Nav)
- NavigationTest.* (excluding .Redirect*)
- RequestHandlerTest.*
- RequestContextTest.Basic*
- RequestContextTest.Popup*
- RequestTest.*
- ResourceManagerTest.*
- ResourceRequestHandlerTest.* (excluding .Filter*)
- SchemeHandlerTest.*
- StreamResourceHandlerTest.*
- Move all tests from the top-level directory to tests/.
- Move files shared by cefclient and unittests to tests/shared/.
- Add a fused (single header/source file) version of gtest in
tests/gtest/ with associated CMake configuration.
- Test-only headers are now exposed in include/test/. Unit test
targets must define UNIT_TEST in order to access them.
- Replace usage of USING_CEF_SHARED with WRAPPING_CEF_SHARED for
clarity (only the libcef_dll_wrapper target should define it).
- Remove the RENAME_DIRECTORY CMake macro which is no longer used.
- Remove C++11 usage from unittests sources for compatibility with
the binary distribution configuration.
- Windows: Fix build errors due to chrome_elf.dll and imm32.lib
missing from the CMake configuration.
- Default plugin loading policy can be specified using the new
`--plugin-policy=[allow|block|detect]` command-line flag.
- Move CefRequestHandler::OnBeforePluginLoad to
CefRequestContextHandler and add a new policy argument that
supports different actions (allow, block, detect, disable) on a
per-plugin-instance basis.
- Add CefContextMenuHandler::RunContextMenu for providing a custom
context menu implementation.
- Add CefResourceBundleHandler::GetDataResourceForScale for
returning scaled resources (issue #1272).
- Add CefResourceBundle for retrieving resources from the resource
bundle (*.pak) files loaded by CEF during startup or via the
CefResourceBundleHandler.
- Linux: Fix Debug build IO access warning with CefGetMimeType.
- cef_unittests: Move the refcounting implementation from TestHandler
to subclasses in order to support interface inheritance from
subclasses.
- Support single parent inheritance in CEF API classes.
- Support non-virtual inheritance in CEF API classes.
- Support translation of CEF API sub-directories.
- Add test sub-directories for testing-only functionality that will be
available to unit tests but not exposed via the binary distribution.
- Add unit tests for the translator tool.
- Fix parsing of template parameter types that include commas.
- Add a new CefRequestHandler::OnResourceResponse() method for inspecting the request/response headers and potentially restarting or redirecting the request.
- Add a new CefRequest::GetIdentifier() method for tracking a request across multiple CefRequestHandler callbacks.
- Pass a CefRequest object instead of just the old URL to CefRequestHandler::OnResourceRedirect().
