The Chromium content layer (which also exposes the NetworkService interface)
generally runs on the UI thread. Previous use of the IO thread for CookieManager
callbacks is an implementation detail of the old network stack that shouldn't be
exposed to clients.
To test: Run ceftests. They should pass as expected.
To test: Run `ceftests --gtest_filter=CookieTest.*:-CookieTest.GetCookieManager*
--enable-network-service`
There should be no functional change when running without the NetworkService
enabled.
Known issues:
- CefCookieManager::SetSupportedSchemes is not yet implemented.
This change adds a new CefSettings.root_cache_path value that must be either
equal to or a parent directory of all CefSettings.cache_path and
CefRequestContextSettings.cache_path values. The sandbox may block read/write
access from the NetworkService to directories that do not meet this requirement.
To test: Run cefclient with a combination of the following flags:
--cache-path=c:\temp\cache
Cache data should be persisted to the specified directory.
--request-context-per-browser
A separate numbered cache directory should be created underneath the
cache-path directory for each new browser instance.
--enable-network-service --disable-extensions
Same tests, but with NetworkService enabled.
Known issues:
- When NetworkService is enabled a C:\temp\cache\cache\Cache directory is
created (should be C:\temp\cache\Cache).
A CefBrowserHostImpl is created using a CefRequestContextImpl that may have a
CefRequestContextHandler. Multiple CefRequestContextImpl may share the same
underlying CefBrowserContext which owns a CefResourceContext. IO-thread
callbacks from Chromium are often associated with a CefResourceContext and the
target frame is identified using render_process_id/render_frame_id routing IDs.
This change forwards frame create/delete notifications from CefBrowserHostImpl
(or CefMimeHandlerViewGuestDelegate) to CefResourceContext so that it can
properly resolve the association from routing ID to Handler when queried from
CefPluginServiceFilter::IsPluginAvailable.
To test: Verify that all ceftests pass with NetworkService disabled.
This change removes cookie and request handler functionality that will not
supported by the NetworkService. Specifically, it is no longer possible to
change cookie storage locations at runime by returning a different
CefCookieManager for an already initialized CefRequestContext. After this change
you will need to use a separate CefRequestContext when creating a CefBrowser if
you require separate cookie storage.
The following methods have been removed:
- CefCookieManager::CreateManager
- CefCookieManager::GetBlockingManager
- CefCookieManager::SetStoragePath
- CefRequestContextHandler::GetCookieManager
The following methods have been renamed:
- CefRequestContext::GetDefaultCookieManager to GetCookieManager.
This change substantially simplifies the network implementation in CEF because
it is no longer necessary to proxy objects that are normally owned by Chromium.
Chromium patches that are no longer necessary will be removed as a follow-up
commit.
To test: Verify that `ceftests --gtest_filter=-PluginTest.*` pass with
NetworkService disabled. Plugin tests will be fixed in a follow-up commit.
This change adds an --enable-network-service command-line flag to run with
NetworkService enabled.
To test: Run `cefclient --enable-network-service --disable-extensions`. The
application should start, load a website and exit without crashing.
Network-related handlers (for cookies, schemes, requests, etc) and extensions
are not expected to work yet.
There should be no functional change when running without the NetworkService
enabled.
- Windows: 10.0.17763.0 SDK is now required.
- Mac: 10.13 SDK is now required.
- Removed CefRequestContext::ResolveHostCached which is no longer supported by Chromium.
- The |category| value for all TRACE calls from CEF client applications is now
"cef.client" due to https://crrev.com/331266377d.
- The |with_menu_marker| parameter to CreateMenuButton has been removed due to
https://crrev.com/7f7e382118.
