Introduction The Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) is an open source project founded by Marshall Greenblatt in 2008 to develop a Web browser control based on the Google Chromium project. CEF currently supports a range of programming languages and operating systems and can be easily integrated into both new and existing applications. It was designed from the ground up with both performance and ease of use in mind. The base framework includes C and C++ programming interfaces exposed via native libraries that insulate the host application from Chromium and WebKit implementation details. It provides close integration between the browser control and the host application including support for custom plugins, protocols, JavaScript objects and JavaScript extensions. The host application can optionally control resource loading, navigation, context menus, printing and more, while taking advantage of the same performance and HTML5 technologies available in the Google Chrome Web browser. Numerous individuals and organizations contribute time and resources to support CEF development, but more involvement from the community is always welcome. This includes support for both the core CEF project and external projects that integrate CEF with additional programming languages and frameworks (see the "External Projects" section below). If you are interested in donating time to help with CEF development please see the "Helping Out" section below. If you are interested in donating money to support general CEF development and infrastructure efforts please visit the CEF Donations page. Binary Distributions Binary distributions, which include all files necessary to build a CEF-based application, are available in the Downloads section. Binary distributions are stand-alone and do not require the download of CEF or Chromium source code. Symbol files for debugging binary distributions of libcef can be downloaded from here. Source Distributions The CEF project is an extension of the Chromium project hosted at http://www.chromium.org. CEF maintains development and release branches that track Chromium branches. CEF source code can be downloaded, built and packaged manually or with automated tools. Visit theBranchesAndBuilding Wiki page for more information. External Projects The base CEF framework includes support for the C and C++ programming languages. Thanks to the hard work of external maintainers CEF can now integrate with a number of other programming languages and frameworks. These external projects are not maintained by CEF so please contact the respective project maintainer if you have any questions or issues. .Net - https://github.com/chillitom/CefSharp .Net (CEF1) - https://bitbucket.org/fddima/cefglue .Net/Mono (CEF3) - https://bitbucket.org/xilium/xilium.cefglue Delphi - http://code.google.com/p/delphichromiumembedded/ Java - http://code.google.com/p/javachromiumembedded/ Python - http://code.google.com/p/cefpython/ If you're the maintainer of a project not listed above and would like your project listed here please either post to the CEF Forum or contact Marshall directly. Support An overview of CEF usage is available on the General Usage Wiki page. CEF support and related discussion is available on the CEF Forum. Helping Out CEF is still very much a work in progress. Some ways that you can help out: - Star issues in the CEF issue tracker that are important to you. This helps with development prioritization. - Report any bugs that you find or feature requests that are important to you. Make sure to first search for existing issues before creating new ones. Please use the CEF Forum and not the issue tracker for usage questions. Each CEF issue should: Include the CEF revision or binary distribution version. Include information about your OS and compiler version. If the issue is a bug please provide detailed reproduction information. If the issue is a feature please describe why the feature is beneficial. - Write unit tests for existing functionality. - Patches are always welcome. View open issues in the CEF issue tracker or search for TODO(cef) in the source code for ideas. If you would like to submit patches for CEF please follow the below guidelines: - Create or find an appropriate issue for each distinct bug, feature or change. - Create a patch with your changes and attach it to the CEF issue. Patches should be against the current CEF trunk revision unless explicitly fixing a bug in a CEF branch. Patches should: Follow the style of existing CEF source files. In general CEF uses the Chromium coding style. Not include unnecessary changes. Notable Changes Not all revisions are listed here. View the Changes list to see the complete list of revisions.

Missing features are indicated by "TODO(port)" comments in the source code. Help with fixing bugs and implementing missing features is welcome. October 24, 2010: Revision 126 disables WebGL support due to performance problems with the default Chromium implementation. WebGL support will be re-enabled once a better-performing implementation is available ( issue #136 ). Add a CefHandler::HandleDownloadResponse() method for handling Content-Disposition initiated file downloads ( issue #6 ). Add XML parsing support with CefXmlReader and CefXmlObject classes ( issue #28 ). Add Zip archive reading support with CefZipReader and CefZipArchive classes (issue #30). Add a new cef_wrapper.h header file that exposes helpful utility classes provided as part of the libcef_dll_wrapper target. October 15, 2010: Revision 116 causes CEF to ignore the "Automatically detect settings" option under LAN Settings in order to fix a problem with slow resource loading on Windows ( issue #81 ). Manual configuration under LAN Settings is still respected. Add a CefBrowser::ReloadIgnoreCache() method and MENU_ID_NAV_RELOAD_NOCACHE menu support. ( issue #118 ).

Change the CEF User-Agent product version to "Chrome/7.0.517.0" August 31, 2010: Revision 100 re-introduces the CefHandler::HandleJSBinding method. The memory leaks that necessitated the elimination of this method have now been fixed ( issue #72 ). The CefRequest argument to CefHandler::HandleBeforeResourceLoad can now be modified allowing the request to be changed on the fly ( issue #41 ). A default tooltip implementation is now provided and tooltip text can be modified using CefHandler::HandleTooltip ( issue #61 ). Printing paper size, orientation and margins can now be changed using CefHandler::HandlePrintOptions ( issue #112 ). Find in page with result highlighting is now supported using CefBrowser::Find, CefBrowser::StopFinding and CefHandler::HandleFindResult. The binary release of revision 100 provides libraries for both Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008. It can be downloaded from the project Downloads page. April 7, 2010: Revision 73 eliminates the CefHandler::HandleJSBinding method. This modification addresses memory leaks that many users have been reporting. For more information see  issue #72 . October 2, 2009: Revision 50 adds GYP support for generating the CEF project files. This makes it easy to build CEF with both VS2005 and VS2008. See the "Source Distributions" section above for additional details. August 21, 2009: Revision 37 adds support for custom scheme handlers. Use the new CefRegisterScheme() function in combination with the CefSchemeHandlerFactory and CefSchemeHandler classes to create handlers for requests using custom schemes such as myscheme://mydomain. July 24, 2009: Revision 32 helps to speed up the addition of new features and bug fixes to CEF. It adds the CEF Patch Application Tool and the "patch" project which together support automatic application of patches to the Chromium and WebKit source trees as part of the build process. See the README.txt file in the new patch directory for additional information. July 8, 2009: CEF now has a dedicated build bot thanks to Nicolas Sylvain and Darin Fisher over at Google. The build bot synchronizes to each Chromium revision and then builds CEF, reporting on any compile errors that occur. Having a build bot for CEF will help the Chromium developers avoid accidentally breaking API features required by CEF, and help the CEF developers keep up with the frequently changing Chromium HEAD revision. You can view the build bot output at http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/waterfall.fyi/waterfall?branch=&builder=Chromium+Embedded June 20, 2009: Revision 30 adds the CEF Translator Tool which facilitates automatic generation of the C API header file (cef_capi.h) and CToCpp/CppToC wrapper classes. See the translator.README.txt file in the new tools directory for additional information. Introduction of this tool required minor changes to the CEF C++ and C APIs. The C++ 'arguments' attribute of CefV8Handler::Execute() and CefV8Value::ExecuteFunction() now has the 'const' qualifier. C API global function names that were previously in the cef_create_classname() format are now in the cef_classname_create() format. The C API cef_frame_t::get_frame_names() member function now has return type 'void' instead of 'size_t'. The C API cef_frame_t::execute_javascript() member function has been renamed to cef_frame_t::execute_java_script(). May 27, 2009: Revision 26 introduces two major changes to the CEF framework. Frame-dependent functions such as loading content and executing JavaScript have been moved to a new CefFrame class. Use the new CefBrowser::Get*Frame() methods to retrieve the appropriate CefFrame instance. A CefFrame instance will now also be passed to CefHandler callback methods as appropriate. The CEF JavaScript API now uses the V8 framework directly instead of creating NPObjects. JavaScript object hierarchies can be written in native C++ code and exported to the JavaScript user-space, and user-space object hierarchies can be accessed from native C++ code. Furthermore, support for the V8 extension framework has been added via the new CefRegisterExtension() function. The CefJSHandler and CefVariant classes have been removed in favor of new CefV8Handler and CefV8Value classes. To attach values to the JavaScript 'window' object you must now implement the CefHandler::HandleJSBinding() callback method instead of calling the (now removed) CefBrowser::AddJSHandler() method.
