GTK3 is required by the Chrome runtime. The cefclient off-screen rendering
example no longer works with Ubuntu 16.04. With end-of-life in April 2021
we are dropping support for 16.04 in the near future in any case.
To generate Windows ARM64 builds set the CEF_ENABLE_ARM64=1 environment
variable and pass the "--arm64-build --build-target=cefsimple" command-line
arguments to automate-git.py. We can't build cefclient.exe for ARM64 due to
missing OpenGL library support so build cefsimple.exe instead.
Requires Xcode 12.2 and the MacOS 11.0 SDK. To generate ARM64 builds set
the CEF_ENABLE_ARM64=1 environment variable and replace all usage of
--x64-build with --arm64-build in script command-line arguments.
Ozone builds can run with different platform backends (Wayland, X11, etc). Usage of the Views framework is required, and the cefclient sample application is not supported.
Example usage:
$ export GN_DEFINES="use_ozone=true"
$ cd /path/to/chromium/src/cef
$ ./cef_create_projects.sh
$ cd /path/to/chromium/src
$ ninja -C out/Release_GN_x64 cefsimple
$ ./out/Release_GN_x64/cefsimple --use-views --ozone-platform=wayland
Binary distributions can be created by passing the `--ozone` flag to make_distrib.py.
- 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.
- Load CEF configuration using `find_package(CEF)`.
- Use per-target configuration via a new SET_EXECUTABLE_TARGET_PROPERTIES
macro instead of setting global CMAKE_* variables.
- Support building projects more easily with an external binary
distribution directory.
- Improve related documentation.
- Add new command-line flags:
--chromium-url: Allows overriding the synced Chromium URL.
--no-cef-update: Allows bypassing the step to sync CEF.
--no-chromium-update: Allows bypassing the step to sync Chromium.
--no-depot-tools-update: Allows bypassing the step to update depot_tools.
--distrib-subdir: Allows specifying the subdirectory name of
chromium/src/cef/binary_distrib.
- Add support in make_distrib.py for the --distrib-subdir flag.
- Change CMake requirement from 2.8.12.2 to 2.8.12.1.
- Windows: d3dcompiler_46.dll changed to d3dcompiler_47.dll due to 8.1 SDK update (issue #1484).
- Windows: Fix `local variable is initialized but not referenced` warning with Release build (issue #1484).

- Add LIBCEF_APPEND_PLATFORM_SOURCES macro definition in libcef_dll/CMakeLists.txt to remove dependency on macros.cmake.
- Don't add the default "lib" prefix to the libcef_dll_wrapper output library name.
- Fix a documentation error in CMakeLists.txt.

- Linux: Fix unrecognized command line option "-Wno-literal-suffix" error.
- Linux: Fix "_FORTIFY_SOURCE" redefined error.
- Mac: Warn about undefined PROJECT_ARCH value.
- Provide default CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE value when unspecified in combination with Ninja or Unix Makefiles generator.
