- Generated files are now created when running cef_create_projects or
the new version_manager.py tool. These files are still created in the
cef/ source tree (same location as before) but Git ignores them due to
the generated .gitignore file.
- API hashes are committed to Git as a new cef_api_versions.json file.
This file is used for both code generation and CEF version calculation
(replacing the previous usage of cef_api_hash.h for this purpose).
It will be updated by the CEF admin before merging breaking API
changes upstream.
- As an added benefit to the above, contributor PRs will no longer
contain generated code that is susceptible to frequent merge conflicts.
- From a code generation perspective, the main difference is that we now
use versioned structs (e.g. cef_browser_0_t instead of cef_browser_t)
on the libcef (dll/framework) side. Most of the make_*.py tool changes
are related to supporting this.
- From the client perspective, you can now define CEF_API_VERSION in the
project configuration (or get CEF_EXPERIMENTAL by default). This
define will change the API exposed in CEF’s include/ and include/capi
header files. All client-side targets including libcef_dll_wrapper
will need be recompiled when changing this define.
- Examples of the new API-related define usage are provided in
cef_api_version_test.h, api_version_test_impl.cc and
api_version_unittest.cc.
To test:
- Run `ceftests --gtest_filter=ApiVersionTest.*`
- Add `cef_api_version=13300` to GN_DEFINES. Re-run configure, build and
ceftests steps.
- Repeat with 13301, 13302, 13303 (all supported test versions).
The cef_api_hash.h file was previously only updated when the translator tool
was run manually. Forgetting to run the translator tool after changing
include/internal/cef_types*.h files would result in cef_parser.py
incorrectly computing the CEF minor version number for future builds. By
updating this file automatically at build time the number of errors should be
reduced.
This splits out the API hashes from the cef_version.h file which is generated at
build time. Changes to the cef_api_hash.h file are committed to the repo and
represent potentially breaking API changes. This commit history will be used to
calculate the version number.
- Add Views header files in a new include/views directory.
- Add initial top-level window (CefWindow), control (CefBrowserView,
CefLabelButton, CefMenuButton, CefPanel, CefScrollView,
CefTextfield) and layout (CefBoxLayout, CefFlowLayout) support.
See libcef/browser/views/view_impl.h comments for implementation
details.
- Add Views example usage in cefclient and cefsimple and Views unit
tests in cef_unittests. Pass the `--use-views` command-line flag to
cefclient, cefsimple and cef_unittests to run using the Views
framework instead of platform APIs. For cefclient and cefsimple
this will create the browser window and all related functionality
using the Views framework. For cef_unittests this will run all
tests (except OSR tests) in a Views-based browser window. Views-
specific unit tests (`--gtest_filter=Views*`) will be run even if
the the `--use-views` flag is not specified.
- Pass the `--hide-frame` command-line flag to cefclient to demo a
frameless Views-based browser window.
- Pass the `--hide-controls` command-line flag to cefclient to demo a
browser window without top controls. This also works in non-Views
mode.
- Pass the `--enable-high-dpi-support` command-line flag to
cef_unittests on Windows to test high-DPI support on a display
that supports it.
- Add CefImage for reading/writing image file formats.
- Add CefBrowser::DownloadImage() for downloading image URLs as a
CefImage representation. This is primarily for loading favicons.
- Add CefMenuModel::CreateMenuModel() and CefMenuModelDelegate for
creating custom menus. This is primarily for use with
CefMenuButton.
- Add CefBrowser::TryCloseBrowser() helper for closing a browser.
Also improve related documentation in cef_life_span_handler.h.
- Rename cef_page_range_t to cef_range_t. It is now also used by
CefTextfield.
- Remove CefLifeSpanHandler::RunModal() which is never called.
- Add draggable regions example to cefclient.
- Support single parent inheritance in CEF API classes.
- Support non-virtual inheritance in CEF API classes.
- Support translation of CEF API sub-directories.
- Add test sub-directories for testing-only functionality that will be
available to unit tests but not exposed via the binary distribution.
- Add unit tests for the translator tool.
- Fix parsing of template parameter types that include commas.
- Move wrapper classes from cef_wrapper.h to wrapper/ directory.
- Move C API functions/classes from cef_capi.h to capi/ directory.
- Move global function implementations from cef_context.cc to *_impl.cc files.
- Output auto-generated file paths in cef_paths.gypi.

- Change index parameter types from int to size_t to make 0-based range implicit.
- Make CefPrintOptions and CefMenuInfo proper wrapper classes.
- Normalize the naming of menu-related types.
- Remove unused command_line variable from test_suite.cc.

- Update to files generated by the CEF translator tool. This introduces minor changes in cef.h and cef_capi.h for naming and translation consistency.
- C API global function names that were previously in the cef_create_classname*() format are now in the cef_classname_create*() format.
- cef_frame_t::get_frame_names() now returns void instead of size_t.
- cef_frame_t::execute_javascript() has been renamed to cef_frame_t::execute_java_script().
- The 'arguments' attribute of CefV8Handler::Execute() and CefV8Value::ExecuteFunction() is now const.
