Using cc_import + interface_library/shared_library to link libcef.lib causes
libcef.dll to be copied as a transitive dependency, leading to issues with
complex Bazel configs. Instead, we explicitly link libcef.lib in the binary
target (cc_binary + linkopts/additional_linker_inputs) and explicitly copy
libcef.dll to the target directory.
- Add `declare_[cc|objc]_library` macros to configure common `copts`
and `local_defines` (where supported) on `[cc|objc]_library`
targets. This limits the scope of defines to the specific target
without inheritance by dependent targets.
- `objc_library` does not currently support `local_defines` so we
use `copts` instead of MacOS.
- Use `**kwargs` to pass all other arguments to the actual cc
target declaration.
When the V8 sandbox is enabled, ArrayBuffer backing stores must be
allocated inside the sandbox address space. This change introduces a new
CefV8Value::CreateArrayBufferWithCopy method that copies the memory
contents into the sandbox address space.
Enabling the V8 sandbox can have a performance impact, especially when
passing large ArrayBuffers from C++ code to the JS side. We have therefore
retained the old CefV8Value::CreateArrayBuffer method that references
external memory. However, this method can only be used if the V8 sandbox is
disabled at CEF/Chromium build time.
To disable the V8 sandbox add `v8_enable_sandbox=false` to
`GN_DEFINES` when building CEF/Chromium.
- Headers that are included by .rc files need to be supplied to
`declare_exe` via the `resources_deps` attribute (passed as the `deps
attribute to `compile_rc`). The headers must be part of a cc_library
target via either the `hdrs` or `srcs` attribute.
- File paths for CEF resources are prefixed with "external/<repo>"
when CEF is loaded as an external repo. Update `copy_filegroups` to
work with these paths.
Unqualified target labels don't resolve correctly when the
disribution is loaded as an external repo. Mapping, if necessary,
can be performed using the `repo_mapping` parameter to
http_archive() or local_repository().
Add support for building the CEF binary distribution using Bazel
and the default platform toolchain. Tested to work for Windows
x64, MacOS ARM64 and x64 (cross-compile from ARM64), and
Linux x64. Windows x86 (cross-compile from x64) is known to
be broken, see https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/22164.
Includes minor changes to tests directory structure to meet
Bazel build requirements.
Compatible configurations include:
- Non-component builds.
- Debug builds on Mac/Linux.
- Release builds on Windows (b/c Debug builds require component builds).
- ASAN builds (which are also Release builds).

Now that args.gn is an input to the make_config_header target we
don't want to invalidate the build unnecessarily by modifying the
file if the contents are unchanged.
Include cef_config.h from base/cef_build.h and fix detection of
args.gn changes so that defines are available everywhere by default.
Fix include configuration for chrome_elf_set and sandbox targets.
Adds support for the OnAcceleratedPaint callback. Verified to work
on macOS and Windows. Linux support is present but not implemented
for cefclient, so it is not verified to work.
To test:
Run `cefclient --off-screen-rendering-enabled --shared-texture-enabled`
Starting with Python 3.12, use of invalid escape sequences in strings
is reported as a SyntaxWarning and will become a SyntaxError at a
later point.
Regular expressions use the backslash character a lot, which result in
warnings of this kind. Python docs recommend to generally use raw
strings for this purpose.
Adds a new GN_OUT_CONFIGS environment variable that, if specified,
will limit the generated configurations to a list of comma-delimited
values (e.g. "Debug_GN_x64,Release_GN_x64").

- chrome: Disable process singleton behavior (see #3609)
- chrome: Disable config as default system browser (see #3613)
