cefclient blank popup windows

[Czarek]

I've built branch 2526 on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. cefclient runs fine, but one issue observed - when runing Tests > popup window I see a blank window contents (seeing only url and buttons). Same when opening DevTools through context menu. Is this a known issue? Is this a cefclient issue or a CEF issue?

EDIT: running Tests > New Window hangs application.

Logs when opening test popup window:

2526 branch is old and not supported. I'm not seeing any problems with 2704 branch and newer on Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit.

Can I build 2704 branch on Ubuntu 12.04 as well?

Probably not, but you should be able to run on 12.04 using an official build.

Official - you mean a Spotify build? What OS does it use to build?

EDIT: I've run cef_binary_3.2704.1432.g60b3718_linux32_client.tar.bz2 and cefsimple works on Ubuntu 12.04 as you said. So how do you do that, Google Chrome can't run on Ubuntu 12.04 but CEF can? CEF > Google Chrome

I've run branch 2526 from cefbuilds.com on Ubuntu 14.04 (a clean install with all updates) and it doesn't work:

Code: Select all

./cefclient: error while loading shared libraries: libgtkglext-x11-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


On Ubuntu 12.04 it also doesn't work with error "gb660893_linux64_client/Release/lib/libcef.so: undefined symbol: g_type_class_adjust_private_offset".

Loooks like branch 2526 wasn't much tested on Linux.

This is what I mean by official build: https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... figuration

The key is to build with a sysroot that's compatible with Ubuntu 12.04.

Looks awesome.

But how can I test cefclient from branch 2704 whether it has improved in regards to handling popup windows? The binaries on Spotify do not include cefclient. I've downloaded standard distribution and tried to build cefclient on Ubuntu 12.04 but got error:

Code: Select all

cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-std=gnu++11’


Tried removing this flag, removing it worked in branch 2526, but here I just get another error if I do it.

Looks like I would need to setup a whole new machine with Ubuntu 14.04, that's a lot of work to just test cefclient popup windows.

The sample application for linux includes cefsimple, and can test cefsimple with popups. Just google "javascript popup window" and click an example that uses window.open().

"google > window.open" works in 2704/cefsimple and in 2526/cefsimple, but fais in 2526/cefclient. Looks like this is just a cefclient issue.
