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]`
Frame identifiers have changed from int64_t to string type. This is due
to https://crbug.com/1502660 which removes access to frame routing IDs
in the renderer process. New cross-process frame identifiers are 160-bit
values (32-bit child process ID + 128-bit local frame token) and most
easily represented as strings. All other frame-related expectations and
behaviors remain the same.
- chrome: Disable upgrade/downgrade behavior (see #3608)
- chrome: Disable process singleton behavior (see #3609)
- chrome: Disable config as default system browser (see #3613)
- mac: Xcode 14.0 with macOS SDK 13.0 is now required.
- Remove CefRequestHandler::OnQuotaRequest because persistent quota is no
longer supported (see https://crbug.com/1208141)
