Get the Dom of the page (not javascript way)

[Piero]

Good evening,
I would like to know if there is a way to get the DOM of the page without using JavaScript. I saw that directly using C ++ classes this can be done and then I wonder why this feature is not available in JCEF. It will be implemented later? If yes, can I know an estimated date?

It is not supported because using Java to execute the renderer process is too slow and complicated.

Thank you for the reply. I have another question then.
Is there a way to get the DOM in object form and not as a string using javascript? I need the positional information of the nodes, and be able to listen and add events on them.

You can do all of that in JavaScript that runs in the renderer process. Use CefMessageRouterHandler to communicate the minimal necessary information to the browser process.
