Documentation update

Post by salvadordf »

I just published a large change in the documentation page :
https://www.briskbard.com/index.php?lang=en&pageid=cef

It has a lot more detailed instructions for Windows, Linux and MacOS, and much better component and demo descriptions.

The procedures, properties and events of the main classes are here :
https://www.briskbard.com/index.php?lang=en&pageid=cefapp
https://www.briskbard.com/index.php?lang=en&pageid=cefchromium

I'm aware this is not a complete documentation but at least it has descriptions and links to other pages where you can see all the details.

The Spanish translation is incomplete at the moment.

MacOS support in Firemonkey!

Post by salvadordf »

The last update added a new FMX demo for MacOS called FMXExternalPumpBrowser. :D

It's still in development. Many features are not implemented and some other don't work correctly or don't work at all but you can load a web page and start navigating in MacOS!

Read the code comments in the main unit for all the details and expect many changes in the future.

Of course, this would have been impossible without the help from martin_fr who added MacOS support in Lazarus and Christoph Schneider who helped in the development of the FMX code.

Thank you very much! :D

Update to CEF 90.6.6

Post by salvadordf »

Hi,

CEF4Delphi is now updated to CEF 90.6.6.

There's only one change in the CEF code :
  • Restore support for CreateBrowserSync with NULL request_context : https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/commits/3c44b04c4ebefee6e49bf1fed8ab1bff6f737da1
This is what's new in CEF4Delphi since the last announcement :
  • Fixed colors in FMXExternalPumpBrowser for MacOS.
  • Added functions to copy the CEF binaries and the CEF helpers automatically to FMXExternalPumpBrowser for MacOS.
  • Added TFMXBufferPanel.OnResized.
  • Added more comments with missing functionality in Linux and MacOS.
  • Disable TNetEncoding calls for older Delphi versions in the MiniBrowser demo.
The FMXExternalPumpBrowser demo for MacOS is still in ALPHA state. I'm still learning how the Objective-C to Delphi bridge works. That's required to implement the remaining features in that demo.

These are the CEF binaries :
  • Windows 32 bits -> https://cef-builds.spotifycdn.com/cef_binary_90.6.6%2Bg3c44b04%2Bchromium-90.0.4430.93_windows32.tar.bz2

Update to CEF 90.6.7

Post by salvadordf »

Hi,

CEF4Delphi is now updated to CEF 90.6.7 which includes Chromium 90.0.4430.212. :D

This is what's new in CEF4Delphi since the last announcement :
  • Added CrAppProtocol protocol implementation to FMXExternalPumpBrowser for MacOS.
  • Added keyboard support to FMXExternalPumpBrowser for MacOS.
  • Added workaround to avoid a crash when the user clicks the right mouse button in FMXExternalPumpBrowser for MacOS.
  • Added the click count to the mouse events to FMXExternalPumpBrowser2 for Linux thanks to Christoph Schneider.
  • Added the ShowMessageCF function to show a message dialog in MacOS.
  • Added calls to FMX.Types.Log.d to write error messages in Firemonkey for Linux and MacOS.
  • Added X11 error handling functions to FMXExternalPumpBrowser2 for Linux thanks to Christoph Schneider.
  • Added uCEFMacOSConstants and uCEFMacOSFunctions units for MacOS.
  • Replaced TThread.Queue for TThread.ForceQueue to avoid executing that method immediately in some cases.
The Firemonkey demos for Linux and MacOS are still in experimental state and they still have some issues.

These are the CEF binaries :
  • Windows 32 bits -> https://cef-builds.spotifycdn.com/cef_binary_90.6.7%2Bg19ba721%2Bchromium-90.0.4430.212_windows32.tar.bz2

Re: CEF4Delphi updates

Post by salvadordf »

Hi,

The last update fixed some issues in the demos and added a new kind of work scheduler for Linux and MacOS called TCEFTimerWorkScheduler.

TCEFTimerWorkScheduler is only recommended for FMX demos in Linux and MacOS because those systems have issues if you try to use TCEFWorkScheduler or TFMXWorkScheduler.

TCEFTimerWorkScheduler uses a TCustomCocoaTimer in MacOS or a TTimer in other operating systems.

The Firemonkey MacOS demo also uses the uFMXApplicationService unit to replace IFMXApplicationService. This is necessary to implement the CrAppProtocol, which is a Chromium requirement in that OS.

Firemonkey doesn't allow to subclass NSApplication in MacOS and that means that the CrAppProtocol implementation doesn't work 100% of the times. For that reason the context menu and JavaScript dialogs in the browser have to be replaced in order to avoid crashes.

This is what's new :
  • Added TCEFTimerWorkScheduler.
  • Moved the GlobalCEFWorkScheduler creation after the GlobalCEFApp creation in all demos using it.
  • Replaced TCEFWorkScheduler by TCEFTimerWorkScheduler in FMX demos for Linux and MacOS.
  • Fixed context menu issue in FMXExternalPumpBrowser2 for Linux
  • Fixed stability issues in FMXExternalPumpBrowser for MacOS
  • Fixed 32bit build issues in TinyBrowser and ToolBoxBrowser2 demos.
  • Added uCEFMacOSInterfaces and uCEFMacOSCustomCocoaTimer.
The CEF binaries are the same as the previous update.
