Use chrome://inspect for remote debugging. The localhost server landing
page is currently deprecated and will be removed in M100 (see
https://crbug.com/1232509#c25).
- Remove CefRequestContextHandler::OnBeforePluginLoad and
CefRequestContext::PurgePluginListCache (fixes issue #3047). These methods
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 in the near future (see https://crbug.com/702993#c58) and
functionality related to plugin filtering has already been removed in
https://crrev.com/343ae351c9.
This CL removes the following deprecated APIs:
- base::Bind()
- base::Callback
- base::Closure
- base::CancelableCallback
- base::CancelableClosure
The behavior that these APIs provided is still available using the *Repeating*
variants. However, consider strongly whether using these variants is actually
necessary in your case or whether the *Once* variants will suffice: unless your
callback *objects* (note: not variables!) need to be called multiple times,
they most likely can and should be the Once variants.
This applies the same changes as https://crrev.com/6cc94b5339.
This removes CefSettings.ignore_certificate_errors and
CefBrowserSettings.ignore_certificate_errors. Due to NetworkService
requirements these values must now be configured globally via the
"ignore-certificate-errors" command-line flag.
This removes CefBrowserSettings.universal_access_from_file_urls and
CefBrowserSettings.file_access_from_file_urls. Due to NetworkService
requirements these values must now be configured globally via command-line
flags ("allow-universal-access-from-files" and "allow-file-access-from-files"
respectively).
Also remove the kAllowFileAccessFromFileUrls switch in CEF which duplicates
the existing kAllowFileAccessFromFiles switch in Chromium (see issue #1785).
AppCache is deprecated in favor of Service Workers and support will be
fully removed soon (~M95). See https://web.dev/appcache-removal/.
Also add missing "allow-file-access-from-files" command-line switch for
CefBrowserSettings.file_access_from_file_urls.
When BackForwardCache is enabled and the user navigates the main frame
back/forward a new RFH may be created for an existing main frame GlobalId value
and CefFrameHostImpl (e.g. an object that was previously Detach()ed after main
frame navigation called SetMainFrame, but for which RenderFrameDeleted was not
subsequently called due to insertion in the BackForwardCache). In this case we
can re-attach the new RFH to the existing main frame CefFrameHostImpl in
RenderFrameHostStateChanged and resume processing of messages.
Swapping back/forward to an existing (already loaded) renderer does not trigger
new notifications for draggable regions (e.g. RenderFrameObserver::
DraggableRegionsChanged is not called by default). We therefore explicitly
request an update of draggable regions by sending the DidStopLoading message to
the renderer.
A new |reattached| parameter is added to CefFrameHandler::OnFrameAttached to
support identification of BackForwardCache usage by the client.
To test with unit tests:
Run `ceftests --gtest_filter=DraggableRegionsTest.DraggableRegionsCrossOrigin
--enable-features=BackForwardCache`
To test manually:
1. Run `cefclient --enable-features=BackForwardCache --use-views
--url=http://tests/draggable`, note that draggable regions work.
2. Load https://www.google.com via the address bar, note that draggable regions
are removed.
3. Go back to http://tests/draggable, note that draggable regions work.
4. Go forward to https://www.google.com, note that draggable regions are
removed.
To test:
Run `cefclient.exe --use-views --hide-frame --hide-controls`
Add `--enable-chrome-runtime` for the same behavior using the Chrome location
bar instead of a text field.
Widevine CDM binaries will be downloaded on supported platforms shortly after
application startup. Widevine support will then become available within a few
seconds after successful installation on Windows or after the next application
restart on other platforms. The CDM files will be downloaded to a "WidevineCdm"
directory inside the `CefSettings.user_data_path` directory.
Pass the `--disable-component-update` command-line flag to disable Widevine
download and installation. Pass the `--component-updater=fast-update` command-
line flag to force Widevine download immediately after application startup.
See the related issue for additional usage details.
- Convert scoped_ptr to std::unique_ptr from <memory>
- Convert arraysize to base::size from include/base/cef_cxx17_backports.h
- Convert NULL to nullptr
- Include include/base/cef_callback.h instead of include/base/cef_bind.h
- Implicit conversion of CefRefPtr<T> or scoped_refptr<T> to T* is gone;
use .get() instead
See the issue for additional details.
ClientAppRenderer::Delegate callbacks are executed for all tests. In this case
CorsTest.IframeAllowScriptsCustomNonStandardSchemeToServer was crashing on Linux
because CefBrowser::GetMainFrame() returns nullptr in the renderer process when
called from a cross-origin sub-frame.
See the new cef_frame_handler.h for complete usage documentation.
This change includes the following related enhancements:
- The newly added CefBrowser::IsValid method will return false (in the browser
process) after CefLifeSpanHandler::OnBeforeClose is called.
- CefBrowser::GetMainFrame will return a valid object (in the browser process)
until after CefLifeSpanHandler::OnBeforeClose is called.
- The main frame object will change during cross-origin navigation or
re-navigation after renderer process termination. During that time,
GetMainFrame will return the new/pending frame (in the browser process) and
any messages that arrive for the new/pending frame will be correctly
attributed in OnProcessMessageReceived.
- Commands to be executed in the renderer process that may fail during early
frame initialization (ExecuteJavaScript, LoadRequest, etc.) will now be
queued until after the JavaScript context for the frame has been created.
- Logging has been added for any commands that are dropped because they arrived
after frame detachment.
A reference to a received CefProcessMessage object and/or associated argument
list can now be kept outside of the OnProcessMessageReceived callback. The
argument list is no longer explicitly owned by the CefProcessMessage object
and can be individually assigned to other CefValue types as needed (e.g. by
passing to SetList, etc). Depending on client usage this could reduce the
potential for unnecessary copies of the list contents.
Received messages can also be sent back using SendProcessMessage (after which
the CefProcessMessage would become invalid as discussed in issue #3123). This
is not new behavior but we have now added explicit unit test coverage for it.
This also no longer requires a copy of the argument list contents.
Note that a received argument list is initially read-only for logical
consistency. Assignment to another CefValue object could potentially remove
the read-only status because it is not an intrinsic property of the underlying
Chromium data type. This is fine because, at that point, ownership has been
transfered to the new CefValue object and the original logical context (as
part of the CefProcessMessage) no longer applies.
This change introduces a few minor CEF API behavior changes:
- A CefProcessMessage object cannot be reused after being passed to
SendProcessMessage.
- The |extra_info| argument to CefRenderProcessHandler::OnBrowserCreated may
now be NULL.
Where appropriate, we now utilize the default UTF string encoding format and
shared memory to reduce copies and conversions for the cross-process
transfer of arbitrary-length strings. For example, CefFrame::GetSource/GetText
now involves zero UTF conversions and zero copies in the browser process for
the CefString delivered to CefStringVisitor::Visit().
With the Chrome runtime, Profile initialization may be asynchronous. Code that
waited on CefBrowserContext creation now needs to wait on CefBrowserContext
initialization instead.
The Chrome runtime requires that cookieable scheme information be available
at Profile initialization time because it also triggers NetworkContext creation
at the same time. To make this possible, and to avoid various race conditions
when setting state, the cookieable scheme configuration has been added as
|cookieable_schemes_list| and |cookieable_schemes_exclude_defaults| in
CefSettings and CefBrowserContextSettings. The CefCookieManager::
SetSupportedSchemes and CefBrowserProcessHandler::GetCookieableSchemes methods
are no longer required and have been removed.
This change also modifies chrome to delay OffTheRecordProfileImpl initialization
so that |ChromeBrowserContext::profile_| can be set before
ChromeContentBrowserClientCef::ConfigureNetworkContextParams calls
CefBrowserContext::FromBrowserContext to retrieve the ChromeBrowserContext
and associated cookieable scheme information. Otherwise, the
ChromeBrowserContext will not be matched and the NetworkContext will not be
configured correctly.
The CookieTest suite now passes with the Chrome runtime enabled.
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.
If a WeakPtr references an already-destroyed object, operator-> and
operator* end up simply dereferencing nullptr. However, dereferencing
nullptr is undefined behavior and can be optimized in surprising ways
by compilers. To prevent this from happening, add a defence of last
resort and CHECK that the WeakPtr is still valid.
Based on https://crrev.com/bbb64b5c69
The cursor change can now be handled by the client with both windowed and
off-screen rendering.
Returning true from OnCursorChange will disable the default cursor change
behavior. This is functionally equivalent to the
CefBrowserHost::SetMouseCursorChangeDisabled method, so that method has been
removed.
This change adds support for:
- Protocol and request handling.
- Loading and navigation events.
- Display and focus events.
- Mouse/keyboard events.
- Popup browsers.
- Callbacks in the renderer process.
- Misc. functionality required for ceftests.
This change also adds a new CefBrowserProcessHandler::GetCookieableSchemes
callback for configuring global state that will be applied to all
CefCookieManagers by default. This global callback is currently required by the
chrome runtime because the primary ProfileImpl is created via
ChromeBrowserMainParts::PreMainMessageLoopRun (CreatePrimaryProfile) before
OnContextCreated can be called.
ProfileImpl will use the "C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\CEF\User Data\Default"
directory by default (on Windows). Cookies may persist in this directory when
running ceftests and may need to be manually deleted if those tests fail.
Remaining work includes:
- Support for client-created request contexts.
- Embedding the browser in a Views hierarchy (cefclient support).
- TryCloseBrowser and DoClose support.
- Most of the CefSettings configuration.
- DevTools protocol and window control (ShowDevTools, ExecuteDevToolsMethod).
- CEF-specific WebUI pages (about, license, webui-hosts).
- Context menu customization (CefContextMenuHandler).
- Auto resize (SetAutoResizeEnabled).
- Zoom settings (SetZoomLevel).
- File dialog runner (RunFileDialog).
- File and JS dialog handlers (CefDialogHandler, CefJSDialogHandler).
- Extension loading (LoadExtension, etc).
- Plugin loading (OnBeforePluginLoad).
- Widevine loading (CefRegisterWidevineCdm).
- PDF and print preview does not display.
- Crash reporting is untested.
- Mac: Web content loads but does not display.
The following ceftests are now passing when run with the
"--enable-chrome-runtime" command-line flag:

The Browser object represents the top-level Chrome browser window. One or more
tabs (WebContents) are then owned by the Browser object via TabStripModel. A
new Browser object can be created programmatically using "new Browser" or
Browser::Create, or as a result of user action such as dragging a tab out of an
existing window. New or existing tabs can also be added to an already existing
Browser object.
The Browser object acts as the WebContentsDelegate for all attached tabs. CEF
integration requires WebContentsDelegate callbacks and notification of tab
attach/detach. To support this integration we add a cef::BrowserDelegate
(ChromeBrowserDelegate) member that is created in the Browser constructor and
receives delegation for the Browser callbacks. ChromeBrowserDelegate creates a
new ChromeBrowserHostImpl when a tab is added to a Browser for the first time,
and that ChromeBrowserHostImpl continues to exist until the tab's WebContents
is destroyed. The associated WebContents object does not change, but the
Browser object will change when the tab is dragged between windows.
CEF callback logic is shared between the chrome and alloy runtimes where
possible. This shared logic has been extracted from CefBrowserHostImpl to
create new CefBrowserHostBase and CefBrowserContentsDelegate classes. The
CefBrowserHostImpl class is now only used with the alloy runtime and will be
renamed to AlloyBrowserHostImpl in a future commit.
- CefURLRequest::Create is no longer supported in the renderer process
(see https://crbug.com/891872). Use CefFrame::CreateURLRequest instead.
- Mac platform definitions have been changed from `MACOSX` to `MAC`
(see https://crbug.com/1105907) and related CMake macro names have
been updated. The old `OS_MACOSX` define is still set in code and CMake
for backwards compatibility.
- Linux ARM build is currently broken (see https://crbug.com/1123214).
With site-per-process enabled a spare renderer process will be created
for use with a future browser or navigation. Consequently the
|extra_info| parameter populated in OnRenderProcessThreadCreated will no
longer be delivered to OnRenderThreadCreated in the expected renderer
process. To avoid confusion these callbacks have been removed completely.
After this change CefRenderProcessHandler::OnWebKitInitialized should
be used for startup tasks in the render process, and OnBrowserCreated
should be used in the render process to recieve |extra_info| passed from
CefBrowserHost::CreateBrowser or CefLifeSpanHandler::OnBeforePopup.
- Windows: 10.0.19041 SDK is now required.
- macOS: 10.15.1 SDK (at least Xcode 11.2) is now required.
- Remove CefMediaSource::IsValid and CefMediaSink::IsValid which would
always return true.
Running `cefsimple --enable-chrome-runtime` will create and run a
Chrome browser window using the CEF app methods, and call
CefApp::OnContextInitialized as expected. CEF task methods also
work as expected in the main process. No browser-related methods or
callbacks are currently supported for the Chrome window, and the
application will exit when the last Chrome window closes.
The Chrome runtime requires resources.pak, chrome_100_percent.pak
and chrome_200_percent.pak files which were not previously built
with CEF. It shares the existing locales pak files which have been
updated to include additional Chrome-specific strings.
On Linux, the Chrome runtime requires GTK so use_gtk=true must be
specified via GN_DEFINES when building.
This change also refactors the CEF runtime, which can be tested in
the various supported modes by running:
$ cefclient
$ cefclient --multi-threaded-message-loop
$ cefclient --external-message-pump
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.
The cef_api_hash.h file was previously only updated when the translator tool
was run manually. Forgetting to run the translator tool after changing
include/internal/cef_types*.h files would result in cef_parser.py
incorrectly computing the CEF minor version number for future builds. By
updating this file automatically at build time the number of errors should be
reduced.
This attribute is useful for identifying different classes of cast devices
without first requiring a connection (CAST, CAST_AUDIO, CAST_AUDIO_GROUP, etc).
This change also restores the Chromium default values for the
SameSiteByDefaultCookies and CookiesWithoutSameSiteMustBeSecure features. See
https://www.chromium.org/updates/same-site for feature details and rollout
timeline.
Chromium supports communication with media devices on the local network via
the Cast and DIAL protocols. This takes two primary forms:
1. Messaging, where strings representing state information are passed between
the client and a dedicated receiver app on the media device. The receiver
app communicates directly with an app-specific backend service to retrieve
and possibly control media playback.
2. Tab/desktop mirroring, where the media contents are streamed directly from
the browser to a generic streaming app on the media device and playback is
controlled by the browser.
This change adds support for device discovery and messaging (but not
mirroring) with functionality exposed via the new CefMediaRouter interface.
To test: Navigate to http://tests/media_router in cefclient and follow the
on-screen instructions.
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.
The behavior has changed as follows with NetworkService enabled:
- All pending and in-progress requests will now be aborted when the CEF context
or associated browser is destroyed. The OnResourceLoadComplete callback will
now also be called in this case for in-progress requests that have a handler.
- The CefResourceHandler::Cancel method will now always be called when resource
handling is complete, irrespective of whether handling completed successfully.
- Request callbacks that arrive after the OnBeforeClose callback for the
associated browser (which may happen for in-progress requests that are aborted
on browser destruction) will now always have a non-nullptr CefBrowser
parameter.
- Allow empty parameters to CefRequest and CefResponse methods where it makes
sense (e.g. resetting default response state, or clearing a referrer value).
- Fixed a reference loop that was keeping CefResourceHandler objects from being
destroyed if they were holding a callback reference (from ProcessRequest,
ReadResponse, etc.) during CEF context or associated browser destruction.
- Fixed an issue where the main frame was not detached on browser destruction
which could cause a crash due to RFH use-after-free (see issue #2498).
To test: All unit tests pass as expected.
This change moves the SendProcessMessage method from CefBrowser to CefFrame and
adds CefBrowser parameters to OnProcessMessageReceived and
OnDraggableRegionsChanged.
The internal implementation has changed as follows:
- Frame IDs are now a 64-bit combination of the 32-bit render_process_id and
render_routing_id values that uniquely identify a RenderFrameHost (RFH).
- CefFrameHostImpl objects are now managed by CefBrowserInfo with life span tied
to RFH expectations. Specifically, a CefFrameHostImpl object representing a
sub-frame will be created when a RenderFrame is created in the renderer
process and detached when the associated RenderFrame is deleted or the
renderer process in which it runs has died.
- The CefFrameHostImpl object representing the main frame will always be valid
but the underlying RFH (and associated frame ID) may change over time as a
result of cross-origin navigations. Despite these changes calling LoadURL on
the main frame object in the browser process will always navigate as expected.
- Speculative RFHs, which may be created as a result of a cross-origin
navigation and discarded if that navigation is not committed, are now handled
correctly (e.g. ignored in most cases until they're committed).
- It is less likely, but still possible, to receive a CefFrame object with an
invalid frame ID (ID < 0). This can happen in cases where a RFH has not yet
been created for a sub-frame. For example, when OnBeforeBrowse is called
before initiating navigation in a previously nonexisting sub-frame.
To test: All tests pass with NetworkService enabled and disabled.
Pending requests that are associated with a browser will be canceled when that
browser is destroyed. Pending requests that are not associated with a browser
(e.g. created using CefURLRequest::Create), and that use the global context, may
still be pending when CefShutdown is called. For this reason the
no_debugct_check attribute has been added for CefResourceRequestHandler and
CefCookieAccessFilter interfaces.
To test: Load a YouTube video or other long-loading content in cefclient and
close the application. No assertions trigger for leaked CefFrame objects.
Requests created using CefURLRequest::Create are not associated with a
browser/frame. When originating from the render process these requests cannot be
intercepted and consequently only http(s) and blob requests are supported. To
work around this limitation a new CefFrame::CreateURLRequest method has been
added that allows the request to be associated with that browser/frame for
interception purposes.
This change also fixes an issue with the NetworkService implementation where
redirected requests could result in two parallel requests being sent to the
target server.
To test: URLRequestTest.* tests pass with NetworkService enabled.
The optional |extra_info| parameter provides an opportunity to specify extra
information specific to the created browser that will be passed to
CefRenderProcessHandler::OnBrowserCreated() in the render process.
With this change the CefCookieManager::SetSupportedSchemes method can be used
to disable all loading and saving of cookies for the associated request context.
This matches functionality that was previously available via GetBlockingManager.
This change also fixes a bug where Set-Cookie headers returned for a request
handled via CefSchemeHandlerFactory would be ignored if there was not also a
CefResourceRequestHandler returned for the request.
To test: All CookieTest.* tests pass.
This change allows the NetworkService to handle cookie load/save in cases where
cookies will not be filtered (CefResourceRequestHandler::GetCookieAccessFilter
returns null) and the request will be handled by the default network loader.
This represents a minor performance improvement by reducing the volume of cross-
process messaging in the default (no filtering or custom handing) case. Cookie
load/save still needs to be routed through the browser process if a filter is
returned, or if a CefResourceHandler is used for the request.
To test: Test expectations are unchanged.
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.*
Under ARC (Automatic Reference Counting), assigning to an Objective-C
pointer has different semantics than assigning to a void* pointer.
This makes it dangerous to treat the same memory address as an
Objective-C pointer in some cases and as a "regular C pointer" in
other cases.
This change removes the conditional type defines and instead uses
void* everywhere. Explicit type casting in combination with ARC
annotations makes it safe to get typed Objective-C pointers from the
void* pointers.
This change enables ARC by default in the CEF binary distribution CMake
configuration for the cefclient and cefsimple sample applications. It can be
disabled by adding `-DOPTION_USE_ARC=Off` to the CMake command line.
ARC is not supported when building Chromium due to the substantial
number of changes that would be required in the Chromium code base.
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.
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.
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).
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 splits out the API hashes from the cef_version.h file which is generated at
build time. Changes to the cef_api_hash.h file are committed to the repo and
represent potentially breaking API changes. This commit history will be used to
calculate the version number.
- 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.
