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.
File dialogs that specify mime type (e.g. "image/*") accept filters will pass
those values unchanged to the OnFileDialog |accept_filters| parameter. The
default dialog implementation will show those filters in addition to a combined
"Custom Files" filter. This is a change from preexisting Google Chrome
behavior where only the combined "Custom Files" filter is displayed, and
restores CEF behavior that existed prior to 2ea7459a89.
Document the fact that OnFileDialog may be called twice, once before MIME type
expansion and once afterwards.
Add new OnFileDialog |accept_extensions| and |accept_descriptions| parameters
for MIME type extensions and descriptions.
Details: This change adds a SelectFileDialog::FileTypeInfo::extension_mimetypes
member and improves the logic in FileSelectHelper::GetFileTypesFromAcceptType
and file_dialog_manager.cc SelectFileToFileChooserParams to support recall of
the source mime type when populating the FileChooserParams structure.
To test:
- Run `ceftests --gtest_filter=DialogTest.*`
- Run `cefclient --url=https://tests/dialogs`
The WinSboxNoFakeGdiInit feature requires delayload of all DLLs that
might load user32.dll in the renderer process. It's enabled as a field
trial for all non-Official builds, but appears to only work with
non-component Release builds. See https://crbug.com/326277735
OnBeforeClose notification is delivered via TabModel destruction in
TabStripModel::SendDetachWebContentsNotifications. We need to let
that call stack unwind before triggering TabStripModel destruction
via closure of the native host window.
Chrome runtime only supports creation of a Views-hosted DevTools
popup in ChromeBrowserDelegate::CreateDevToolsBrowser if the parent
is also Views-hosted.
To test:
- Run `cefclient --use-native`
- Right click, select "Show DevTools"
- Close both windows and the app should exit
Set enable_alloy_bootstrap=false to build with Alloy bootstrap code
removed. Extension API is documented as deprecated in comments but
not compiled out with this arg.
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`
Split the Alloy runtime into bootstrap and style components. Support
creation of Alloy style browsers and windows with the Chrome runtime.
Chrome runtime (`--enable-chrome-runtime`) + Alloy style
(`--use-alloy-style`) supports Views (`--use-views`), native parent
(`--use-native`) and windowless rendering
(`--off-screen-rendering-enabled`).
Print preview is supported in all cases except with windowless rendering
on all platforms and native parent on MacOS. It is disabled by default
with Alloy style for legacy compatibility. Where supported it can be
enabled or disabled globally using `--[enable|disable]-print-preview` or
configured on a per-RequestContext basis using the
`printing.print_preview_disabled` preference. It also behaves as
expected when triggered via the PDF viewer print button.
Chrome runtime + Alloy style behavior differs from Alloy runtime in the
following significant ways:
- Supports Chrome error pages by default.
- DevTools popups are Chrome style only (cannot be windowless).
- The Alloy extension API will not supported.
Chrome runtime + Alloy style passes all expected Alloy ceftests except
the following:
- `DisplayTest.AutoResize` (Alloy extension API not supported)
- `DownloadTest.*` (Download API not yet supported)
- `ExtensionTest.*` (Alloy extension API not supported)
This change also adds Chrome runtime support for
CefContextMenuHandler::RunContextMenu (see #3293).
This change also explicitly blocks (and doesn't retry) FrameAttached
requests from PDF viewer and print preview excluded frames (see #3664).
Known issues specific to Chrome runtime + Alloy style:
- DevTools popup with windowless rendering doesn't load successfully.
Use windowed rendering or remote debugging as a workaround.
- Chrome style Window with Alloy style BrowserView (`--use-alloy-style
--use-chrome-style-window`) does not show Chrome theme changes.
To test:
- Run `ceftests --enable-chrome-runtime --use-alloy-style
[--use-chrome-style-window] [--use-views|--use-native]
--gtest_filter=...`
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --use-alloy-style
[--use-chrome-style-window]
[--use-views|--use-native|--off-screen-rendering-enabled]`
- Run `cefsimple --enable-chrome-runtime --use-alloy-style [--use-views]`
Controls now respect OS and Chrome themes by default for both Alloy
and Chrome runtimes. Chrome themes (mode and colors) can be configured
using the new CefRequestContext::SetChromeColorScheme method. Individual
theme colors can be overridden using the new CefWindowDelegate::
OnThemeColorsChanged and CefWindow::SetThemeColor methods.
The `--force-light-mode` and `--force-dark-mode` command-line flags are
now respected on all platforms as an override for the OS theme.
The current Chrome theme, if any, will take precedence over the OS theme
when determining light/dark status. On Windows and MacOS the titlebar
color will also be updated to match the light/dark theme.
Testable as follows:
- Run: `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime` OR
`cefclient --use-views --persist-user-preferences --cache-path=...`
- App launches with default OS light/dark theme colors.
- Change OS dark/light theme under system settings. Notice that theme
colors change as expected.
- Right click, select items from the new Theme sub-menu. Notice that
theme colors behave as expected.
- Exit and relaunch the app. Notice that the last-used theme colors are
applied on app restart.
- Add `--background-color=green` to above command-line.
- Perform the same actions as above. Notice that all controls start
and remain green throughout (except some icons with Chrome runtime).
- Add `--force-light-mode` or `--force-dark-mode` to above command-line.
- Perform the same actions as above. Notice that OS dark/light theme
changes are ignored, but Chrome theme changes work as expected.
The client can optionally wait or terminate the render process.
Expose process exit codes via OnRenderProcessTerminated and
CefGetExitCode (fixes#2126).
cefclient: Add a new https://tests/hang page for testing hang behavior.
cefclient: Move message and resource handling to a new BaseClientHandler
class to support loading of test pages in default Chrome UI windows.
Wait for the OnRequestContextInitialized callback before using a
non-global CefRequestContext.
Use default handling of --load-extension for Chrome runtime (fixes#3529).
- Fix UI thread shutdown issues on early app exit.
- views: cefclient: Fix threading requirements in RootWindowViews::Init when
called on the UI thread via OnAlreadyRunningAppRelaunch.
- Adds `--initial-show-state=hidden` support for cefclient and cefsimple
where the window launches as initially hidden (no dock thumbnail).
- Adds `--hide-window-on-close` support for cefclient where clicking the
red traffic light button hides the window instead of closing it.
Windows still uses OpenGL 1.1 to avoid the added complexity of linking
newer OpenGL APIs on that platform. MacOS has deprecated OpenGL and we
should eventually provide a Metal-based implementation on that platform.
Executes CefBrowserProcessHandler::OnAlreadyRunningAppRelaunch
callback for when an already running app is relaunched with the
same CefSettings.root_cache_path.
Adds "Root Cache Path" value and related explainer text to
chrome://version.
Adds a LOG(WARNING) that will be output on startup if
CefSettings.root_cache_path is unset in the client app.
Adds a new CefBrowserProcessHandler::OnAlreadyRunningAppRelaunch
callback for when an already running app is relaunched with the
same CefSettings.root_cache_path.
Client apps should check the CefInitialize() return value for early
exit of the relaunch source process.
This fixes the app icon for default Chrome windows such as DevTools
and Task Manager.
An ICON with value IDR_MAINFRAME (101) will be loaded from the main
executable is available. Otherwise, the default Chromium ICON will be
loaded from libcef.dll.
Add new CefBrowserHost::[Can]ExecuteChromeCommand methods for executing
arbitrary Chrome commands.
Add support for existing CefBrowserHost::ShowDevTools, CloseDevTools and
HasDevTools methods.
DevTools windows now support the same Views callbacks as normal popup
windows with the new CefLifeSpanHandler::OnBeforeDevToolsPopup callback
as the DevTools-specific equivalent of OnBeforePopup.
Always create DevTools as an undocked window to support use of
ShowDevTools with default Chrome browser windows.
To test:
Run `ceftests --enable-chrome-runtime [--use-views]
--gtest_filter=V8Test.OnUncaughtExceptionDevTools`
OR:
1. Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime [--use-native]`
2. Select "Show DevTools", "Close DevTools" or "Inspect" from the
right-click menu.
3. Notice that the DevTools window is Views-hosted (or native-hosted)
and works as expected.
Add --use-default-popup to get a default styled popup in step 3.
Disable Chrome policy management by default. Add CefSettings.chrome_policy_id
which, when configured, enables Chrome policy management. See
https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/9037717 for background.
To test:
- Start with a machine where Google Chrome is managed.
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --url=chrome://policy/`
There should be no configured policies.
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --url=chrome://policy/
--enable-chrome-policy`
Configured Platform properties should match Google Chrome.
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --url=chrome://policy/
--enable-chrome-policy --enable-chrome-browser-cloud-management`
Configured Platform and Cloud properties should match Google Chrome.
Add a simpler CanZoom/Zoom API as an alternative to the more error-prone
SetZoomLevel/GetZoomLevel API. Both APIs are now implemented for both runtimes.
With the Chrome runtime a zoom notification bubble will be displayed unless
CefBrowserSettings.chrome_zoom_bubble is set to STATE_DISABLED.
To test:
- Run cefclient and select zoom entries from the Tests menu.
- chrome: Run cefclient with `--hide-chrome-bubbles` command-line flag to hide
the zoom notification bubble.
Use the same code path for all fullscreen transitions so that Chrome UI updates
correctly. All user-initiated fullscreen transitions now result in
CefWindowDelegate::OnWindowFullscreenTransition callbacks.
