jcef | Chromium Embedded Framework for Java Language | Plugin library

I am currently working on developing an IDEA extension that embeds JCEF for frontend interaction. Once the user clicks on a button, the implemented onQuery method in MessageRouterHandler would be executed, and a time-consuming task would be performed.

The time-consuming task is implemented in a method (asynchronous on a thread other than the main thread in case the UI to be frozen) and is wrapped in a form like

I am processing animations taking place in a webpage in a video software. I am currently using Selenium 4 with Chrome and I'd like to achieve a better performance.

I could not find a way to leverage the Page.startScreencast method via Selenium, so my current approach is simply taking periodic screenshots using

I am currently preparing for developing an IDEA plugin involving webview containing some information. Since I have developed a VSCode extension of similar functionalities and it uses many webviews, I plan to migrate those HTML to IDEA's plugin by JECF.

However, the functionalities require some interaction with the extension/plugin, as in VSCode I could click some elements of the webview and insert some texts into the editor by acquireVsCodeApi provided by VSCode itself. And I am not quite sure if such communication could be performed by using JCEF in the plugin of IDEA? (I am quite new to Jetbrain's plugin development and JAVA)

Great thanks for any suggestions.

I have a BrowserComponent that loads a specific URL.

I just updated to the latest CN1 sources, but now I get the below error for a project that compiled just before. Any idea about is causing this issue?

NB. I've activated CSS for this demo example since I'm trying debug an issue I have with that. Notice the line with "Failed loading the skin file: /iPhoneX.skin". I have reloaded the CN1 settings for this project, so the iPhoneX skin should be there as far as I understood.

Sorry in advance if I did something stupid, I'm pretty nagged this evening :-)

I am trying to use a library called Journey browser which uses the Java Chromium Embedded Framework. I first created a Java Maven Project with Netbeans and I edited the pom.xml to match the values on the library's guide, which is here: https://github.com/CodeBrig/Journey, to add the maven dependencies. (No errors detected by Netbeans) I then built the project to download the maven dependency and put their default code (modified slightly) in the main class. Netbeans found no errors in the code. However, when I run the project I get a "no chrome_elf in java.library.path". I think this has something to do with embedding JCEF, but I am not sure how to add this to the "java.library.path" in Netbeans.

How do I fix this "chrome_elf" problem? Also, if I am able to fix this will it be an error for production if someone doesn't have "chrome_elf" installed?

I have started implementing JCEF in a project of mine, and I am initializing the embedded browser in a JInternalFrame inside of a JFrame, alongside a series of form fields on a JPanel next to the JInternalFrame. The browser component doesn't fully initialize until the JFrame actually becomes visible, and I'm finding that my JTextFields are uneditable unless the JFrame loses and regains focus.

Any idea of what could be happening and how to fix it? This only happens when using a JInternalFrame with the JCEF component...

It also happens every time I call loadURL to load a new page in the browser: the JTextFields become uneditable again, until I lose/gain focus in the JFrame.

UPDATE: I have found a hack which allows the JTextFields to become editable again, but I wouldn't call it a solution because it is not very elegant. I added a load handler to the CefClient instance ( client.addLoadHandler(new CefLoadHandlerAdapter()) ) with an @Ovveride on the onLoadingStateChange method, which in turn gives access to the current browser component. From there I can detect when loading in the browser is complete, and use SwingUtilities to get the Window that the browser component is in. Then I setVisible(false) and setVisible(true) on that Window. I say it's not a solution because every time the browser is done loading the Window disappears and reappears. Even though the JTextFields are editable again, it is quite ugly to see the window flashing. I've tried all kinds of revalidate() and repaint() methods to no avail, unless I didn't call them right...

I have created an application using JCEF. My application is using the localstorage for saving its settings. The problem I'm seeing, is that each time the application is closed, and restarted, all the data in the localstorage is discarded. I have tested using the CEFSimple app from multiple versions, (see my ticket here https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/java-cef/issues/386/localstorage-is-empty-after-application), and the same problem is reproduced. So I'm suspecting a missing setting somewhere. Does anybody know, what is missing or can confirm this is a bug ?
