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 fixes warnings when compiling with `-Wstrict-prototypes`.
Functions with empty parameter lists behave differently in C and C++:
- void func() in C is same as void func(...) in C++.
- void func() in C++ is same as void func(void) in C.
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).
The mojo channel used for frame communication may disconnect for a variety of
reasons including frame navigation, frame destruction, or insertion into the
BackForwardCache (when the browser-side frame representation is destroyed and
closes the connection). When disconnect occurs we now evaluate the situation
and reconnect if appropriate.
Connections are now initiated solely from the renderer process and the
RenderFrame is passed as an argument to FrameAttached() instead of being
retrieved independently. Messages are queued while the frame is disconnected
and sent only after FrameAttachedAck() is received from the browser process.
The renderer process will be crashed intentionally with a "connection retry
failure" message if the reconnect fails 3 times in a row.
Add the generated includes/ directory to CEF's "config" so that source files
included in patched Chromium targets (for example, blink_glue.cc) can find
cef_config.h which will be included via `include/internal/cef_types_linux.h`
on Linux.
The libcef_dll_wrapper target may be built very early due to minimal
dependencies. Make sure that cef_config.h is generated first as it will be
included via `include/internal/cef_types_linux.h` on Linux.
Fixes a shutdown crash due to `ExtensionsBrowserClient::Set(nullptr)` being
called too early. Some code that may occasionally be triggered via
`content::ContentMainShutdown()` is expecting the extensions objects to still
be valid.
This new ownership pattern matches the code in chrome/.
URLLoaderNetworkServiceObserver is used for routing certificate and
authentication callbacks from the NetworkService to the associated
StoragePartition instance. With request interception enabled this object was
previously only assigned for the initial request. This change adds assignment
for restarted/redirected requests as well.
This change disables PartitionAlloc and the related allocator shim. Using the
system allocator makes it easier to integrate with client applications which
may perform allocations before initializing CEF.
With PdfUnseasoned the PDF file will be loaded in a dedicated renderer process.
We identify this process by adding the kPdfRenderer command-line flag (similar
to how kExtensionProcess is used to identify an extension renderer process). We
then avoid calling GetNewBrowserInfo for the PDF renderer process because we
know the request will otherwise time out.
