CefContext implements the public CEF API functions and delegates
the stages of content & service_manager process execution to
CefMainRunner. CEF-specific runtime logic (which may be replaced
with chrome-specific runtime logic) is then delegated to
CefMainDelegate which implements content::ContentMainDelegate.
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.
- 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.
Known issues:
- The CefLoadCRLSetsFile function needs to be re-implemented (see issue #2497).
- Linux: GTK2 support has been removed. The cefclient sample needs to be updated
to use GTK3 (see issue #2014).
- Remove |accept_lang| parameter from CefJSDialogHandler::OnJSDialog
and CefFormatUrlForSecurityDisplay (see https://crbug.com/336973#c36).
- Remove remaining NPAPI-related code including functions from
cef_web_plugin.h (see https://crbug.com/493212#c55).
- Mac: 10.7+ deployment target is now required for client applications.
- Mac: Remove CefBrowserHost::SetWindowVisibility (issue #1375). No
replacement is required for windowed rendering. Use WasHidden for
off-screen rendering.
- Windows: Visual Studio 2015 Update 2 is now required when building
CEF/Chromium.
- Delete include/cef_runnable.h (issue #1336).
- Build the cef_unittests target using all Chromium headers. Add a
USING_CHROMIUM_INCLUDES define and libcef_dll_wrapper_unittests
target to support this. This change avoids compile errors due to
the divergence of CEF and Chromium base/ header implementations.
The libcef_dll_wrapper sources must now compile successfully with
both CEF and Chromium base/ headers (issue #1632).
- The onbeforeunload message specified via JavaScript is no longer
passed to the client (see http://crbug.com/587940).
- Improve ordering of CefLoadHandler callbacks. OnLoadingStateChange will
be called before and after all calls to OnLoadStart and OnLoadEnd.
OnLoadStart/OnLoadEnd calls will occur as matching pairs
(see http://crbug.com/539952#c2).
- Remove the |requesting_url| argument to CefGeolocationHandler::
OnCancelGeolocationPermission. Clients can use the |request_id| argument
to track this information themselves.
- Fix a crash when loading the PDF extension in multiple browsers with a
custom CefRequestContext (issue #1757).
- Persist modified user preferences including per-host zoom settings when a
cache_path value is specified and persist_user_preferences is set to true
via CefSettings or CefRequestContextSettings.
- Avoid the need to duplicate files from chrome/ by having CefBrowserContext
extend Chrome's Profile class.
- Implement CefRequestHandler::OnBeforeBrowse using NavigationThrottle
instead of ResourceThrottle (see http://crbug.com/537634). The CefRequest
object passed to OnBeforeBrowse will no longer have an associated request
identifier.
- Mac: Remove additional helper apps which are no longer required (see
http://crbug.com/520680)
- Remove the UR_FLAG_REPORT_RAW_HEADERS flag which is no longer supported (see
http://crbug.com/517114)
- Remove the CefBrowserSettings.java parameter. Java is an NPAPI plugin and
NPAPI plugins are no longer supported (see http://crbug.com/470301#c11)
- Add CefFormatUrlForSecurityDisplay function in cef_parser.h
- Fix crash when passing `--disable-extensions` command-line flag (issue #1721)
- Linux: Fix NSS handler loading (issue #1727)
