- Windows: SDK version 10.0.20348.0 is now required.
- MacOS: SDK version 12.3 (Xcode 13.3) is now required.
- Legacy swiftshader binaries (`swiftshader/*` on Win/Linux and
`libswiftshader_*.dylib` on MacOS) have been removed (see issue #3176).
All file dialogs irrespective of source, platform and runtime will now be
routed through CefFileDialogManager and trigger CefDialogHandler callbacks
(see issue #3293).
Adds Chrome runtime support for CefBrowserHost::RunFileDialog and
CefDialogHandler callbacks.
Adds Alloy runtime support for internal GTK file and print dialogs on Linux
subject to the following limitations:
1. Internal GTK implementation:
- Cannot be used with multi-threaded-message-loop because Chromium's
internal GTK implementation is not thread-safe (does not use GDK threads).
- Dialogs will not be modal to application windows when used with off-screen
rendering due to lack of access to the client's top-level GtkWindow.
2. Cefclient CefDialogHandler implementation:
- Cannot be used with Views because it requires a top-level GtkWindow.
Due to the above limitations no dialog implementation is currently provided for
Views + multi-threaded-message-loop on Linux. In cases where both
implementations are supported the cefclient version is now behind an optional
`--use-client-dialogs` command-line flag.
Expressly forbids multiple simultaneous file dialogs with the internal platform
implementation which uses modal dialogs. CefDialogHandler will still be notified
and can optionally handle each request without a modal dialog (see issue #3154).
Removes some RunFileDialog parameters that are not supported by the Chrome file
dialog implementation (selected_accept_filter parameter, cef_file_dialog_mode_t
overwrite/read-only flags).
This change adds Chrome runtime support on Windows and Linux for creating a
browser parented to a native window supplied by the client application.
Expected API usage and window behavior is similar to what already exists with
the Alloy runtime. The parent window handle should be specified by using
CefWindowInfo::SetAsChild in combination with the CefBrowserHost::CreateBrowser
and CefLifeSpanHandler::OnBeforePopup callbacks.
The previously existing behavior of creating a fully-featured Chrome browser
window when empty CefWindowInfo is used with CreateBrowser remains unchanged
and Views is still the preferred API for creating top-level Chrome windows
with custom styling (e.g. title bar only, frameless, etc).
The cefclient Popup Window test with a native parent window continues to crash
on Linux with both the Alloy and Chrome runtimes (see issue #3165).
Also adds Chrome runtime support for CefDisplayHandler::OnCursorChange.
To test:
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime [--use-views]` for the default (and
previously existing) Views-based behavior.
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --use-native` for the new native
parent window behavior.
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --use-native --no-activate` and the
window will not be activated (take input focus) on launch (Windows only).
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime [--use-views|--use-native]
--mouse-cursor-change-disabled` and the mouse cursor will not change on
mouseover of DOM elements.
This change configures session restore behavior for the NEXT application
restart by setting the "session.restore_on_startup" preference based on the
[CefSettings|CefRequestContextSettings].persist_session_cookies value.
This change adds a CefDownloadHandler::CanDownload callback for optionally
blocking user-initiated downloads (e.g. alt + link click or link click that
returns a `Content-Disposition: attachment` response from the server).
To test:
- Run `ceftests --gtest_filter=DownloadTest.*`.
- Run `cefclient --hide-controls`. User-initiated downloads will be blocked.
This change adds a CefCommandHandler::OnChromeCommand callback for optionally
handling Chrome commands triggered via menus or keyboard shortcuts. Supported
command IDs are listed in a new cef_command_ids.h header file.
To test: Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --hide-controls`. Most commands
will blocked and removed from context menus.
This change adds `CefBrowserSettings.chrome_status_bubble` for controlling
whether the Chrome status bubble will be used.
Testable in cefclient by passing the `--hide-chrome-status-bubble`
command-line flag.
We need to override ChromeMimeHandlerViewGuestDelegate to handle
OnGuestAttached/Detached callbacks in order to account for the guest renderer
process hosting the PDF extension.
Additional work will be required to account for the renderer process hosting the
PDF viewer when using `--enable-features=PdfUnseasoned` (see issue #2969).
- 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.
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.
This change adds a minimal implementation of the |tabs.update| extension API and
modifies StreamsPrivateAPI::SendExecuteMimeTypeHandlerEvent to return a valid
|streamInfo.tabId| value as required by the navigateInCurrentTab implementation
in chrome/browser/resources/pdf/browser_api.js.
