CEF Printing Support implementation

[idrissha]

Hi,

May be a lame question but i can not figure out why CefPrintHandler usage is not the same as others similar Handlers like CefDownloadHandler. Why we can't access/call it using ClientHandler code? I tried to look into the code and comments but could not find any hints. Thanks

Regards

It's mostly an implementation detail of Chromium. If you need to associate the printing with a browser you can use the new CefPrintHandler::OnPrintStart callback: https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/issues/1736

I did not understand the response completely. I am only trying to expose the printing api's via cefpython project. So i will try to put my question in another way, what can go wrong, if i use ClientHandler to expose the printing api's?

According to my understanding, we do not need browser info in printing api other than CefPrintHandler::OnPrintStart. They contains the callbacks, which if exported along with the api's should result in proper reactions.

Thanks for your reply.
