Cef 3 1750 LoadRequest not working

[mezdej]

Hi,
I have some code used in cef1 that worked fine.... and after moving to cef3 it stopped to work.

Code: Select all

        CefRefPtr< CefRequest > send = CefRequest::Create();
        CefRefPtr< CefPostData > postdata = CefPostData::Create();

        CefRefPtr< CefPostDataElement > entry = CefPostDataElement::Create();
        entry->SetToBytes( data.length(), data.ascii() );

        postdata->AddElement( entry );
   
        if( send )
        {
            CefString destination;
            destination.FromWString( url.ucs2() );
           
            send->SetURL( destination );
            send->SetMethod( "POST" );
            send->SetPostData( postdata );
            browser->GetMainFrame()->LoadRequest( send );
            return true;
        }

Is there something more I just need to set? or it is a known bug - I didn't find any issue related

Where are you executing this code from?

It's called only in base proces but not on the cef UI thread - we are using multi_threaded_message_loop = true.
But it depends, when browser is just created with existing request it's called from OnAfterCreated.

Sorry but I was on holidays

I double checked this problem and it occurs only in my application... I'm going to check why LoadRequest does nothing here...

[magreenblatt]

LoadRequest will only work after the render process has been created, so OnAfterCreated won't work consistently. Instead you can use a url like "about:blank" and call LoadRequest from OnLoadEnd. Also watch https://code.google.com/p/chromiumembed ... ail?id=579 for a resolution of this issue.

Thanks! That was the case.

I noticed that CreateBrowser with about:blank does not cause OnLoadStart/End
