What is CefBrowser ? ……
Or how do I get CefBrowser from it’s identifier
Or how do I do anything to whatever the CefBrowserHost::CreateBrowser function created?

the CefBrowser object is always changing :
int OnContextMenuCommand test following code :
TCHAR buffer[100]={0};
wsprintf(buffer,TEXT("browser=%d"), browser.get());
::MessageBox(NULL, buffer, TEXT(""), MB_OK);
the pointer is of different value every test.

CefBrowser::GetIdentifier returns the browser unique ID.
browser.get() will return a pointer, which might vary (although CefRefPtr::ptr_ should be the same and only its refcount vary).
You might want to use
- Code: Select all
wsprintf(buffer,TEXT("browser=%p"), browser.get());

It's varying as well, why?

keep my own CefRefPtr<CefBrowser> in the OnAfterCreated callback:
new CefRefPtr<CefBrowser>(browser)
