I would like to implement Bookmark (My Favorite) function in my CEF based browser.

If I should make it from scratch, where is the good point to start ?

Bookmarks are a user interface feature that will not be provided by CEF. You can implement them in your application using whatever approach you like.

Yes, if you do it all yourself. You can get the current page URL by tracking navigation events or from { CefRefPtr<CefFrame> frame = browser->GetMainFrame(); std::string strURL = frame->GetURL(); } . You'll need to create the user interface and persistent storage for the lists of bookmarks.

Thanks for your reply @HarmlessDave.
Some more queries we have related to bookmark feature @magreenblatt:
1. If we raise a PR related to bookmark feature, will it be accepted in CEF forum ?
2. We can introduce a command line argument option to toggle between feature,
bookmark feature will work only with below command line option --enable-bookmark ?

No, it would not be accepted. Note that the new/experimental Chrome runtime mode does support bookmarks. See https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... -callbacks
