Excel DDE Addin hangs

Postby Meghavi » Thu Dec 11, 2014 6:35 am

HI,

we are using multiprocess mode to load pages in cef webbrowser.

If the seperate process is running ie cef is initialized and excel dde addin starts, it hangs excel.

If i kill render process exe, excel dde addin works again and everything is fine.

It also works fine if excel dde addin has already been connected and then i start cef process.

Is there any known issue regarding this?

I am using version 1650 of cef3

An Update on this issue:

This issue only happens if my render process exe is separate.

Thanks,
Meghavi

According to https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issu ... l?id=76523 it might be related to Flash. Try passing the `--disable-plugins` command-line flag or set CefSettings.plugins.

Be sure to ONLY create windows (CreateWindow/CreateDialog, etc) after CefInitialize call.
This helped me to solve EXACT behavior you described...
