CEF Forum

I am trying to run JCEF in Eclipse with Scala for continuity with other programs using network, ETL; etc. My goal is to be able to obtain data over a network that is causing other tools to break while avoiding a memory leak I have been experiencing in Selenium. I was able to get the tool working outside of eclipse. However, before I even get to run the code, a check fails. I tried printing messages in main and my class and they never appear. Is there a way to resolve the following issue with my below listed system specs?

I should also note that I have looked at other posts on this site and Googled, attempting solutions to no avail.

Setup

IDE: Eclipse Mars
Jars: Placed in a library known as chromiu. All jars requested by README.txt were added (jogl-all,jogl-all-natives-linux-amd64,jcef,gluegen-rt-natives-linux-amd64,gluegen-rt)
DLL: Placed in jcef.jar
JDK: 1.8.0_77
Scala : 2.11.7

Also all symlink were made as requested by JCEF's Quick Start Guide and the build tool. I checked and there is data in this files.


Sample Code

class Browser(startUrl : String,commandLineArgs :List[String] = null, useOSR : Boolean = OS.isLinux(), isTransparent : Boolean = false,sleepTimeMillis : Long = 10,ignoreCertificateErrors : Boolean = false) extends JFrame{
println("Generating Handlers")
CefApp.addAppHandler(Handlers.getHandlerAdapter)
private var settings = new CefSettings
settings.windowless_rendering_enabled = useOSR
println("Starting App")
private final val cefApp : CefApp = if(commandLineArgs != null && commandLineArgs.size > 0) CefApp.getInstance(ChromeCommandLineParser.parse(commandLineArgs)) else CefApp.getInstance(settings)
private final val client : CefClient = cefApp.createClient()
private final val browser : CefBrowser = client.createBrowser(startUrl,useOSR, isTransparent)
private final val browserUI = browser.getUIComponent
println("Making Visible")
pack()
setSize(800,600)
setVisible(true)
addWindowListener(Handlers.getDefaultWindowListener(this))
......

}

object Driver{
def main(args : Array[String]):Unit={
println("Starting")
val br = new Browser("https://www.google.com")
println("Quiting")
br.quit()
}
}

I get the same error with MinFrame.java, written by the JCEF folks.

You need to run with LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libcef.so

That worked but now I am getting a different error. Any idea what is wrong?

Code: Select all

The closest answer for this I found was with cefSharp which stated to place .pak files in the same directory as the library. I triple checked the links. Everything is in the same directory. However, the check still fails.

You're missing the icudtl.dat file. To simplify things lets continue the conversation in this thread instead of the other thread.

Ok. I didn't see your above post. However, I am still getting the ICU error. I will post a rather full report below just in case.

I need to use Java 8, specifically the jdk and have jdk 1.8.0.72.

My OS is Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial.

I get the following error but:

Code: Select all

Here is what I did that I though would put icudtl.dat on the path:

Without Maven using a New 64 bit Version of Eclipse due to an Eclipse Update

1. Remove symlinks
2. Remove all traces of cef and jcef
3. Redownload jcef and extract cef binaries of the appropriate version (2623)
4. Remake Symlinks
5. Add all jars from the binary_distrib/linux64/bin folder except jcef-tests.jar {gluegen-rt,gluegen-rt-natives,jogl-all,jogl-all-natives,jcef}
6. Add native library path to binary_distrib with libcef.so, icudtl.dat, snapshot_blob.bin; natives_blob.bin to the jcef.jar library path
7. Double check the symlinks. They are present.
8. Setup a new Java Project
9. Set LD_PRELOAD to the libcef.so file in ~/jcef/src/third_party/native/Release/libcef.so
10. Attempt to run the project. Fail!
11. Set LD_PRELOAD to the libcef in the binary_dstrib folder ~/jcef/src/binary_dstrib/linux64/bin/lib/linux64/libcef.so
12. Try 6-11 with the jcef_build path containing the libraries and finally the cef path without most of them to see what happened (the latter produces an expectedly different error)
13. Attempt again and fail!

Install With Maven and Try Again

1. Remove symlinks
2. Remove all traces of cef and jcef
3. Redownload jcef and extract cef binaries of the appropriate version (2623)
4. Remake Symlinks
5. create an environment variable to the binary_distrib directory and set in path mvn install:install-files -Djarfile=XXXX.jar for gluegen-rt,gluegen-rt-natives,jogl-all,jogl-all-natives;jcef
6. Setup a new Maven Project
7. Add all jars to dependency (worked)
8. Set LD_PRELOAD to the libcef.so file in ~/jcef/src/third_party/native/Release/libcef.so
9. Attempt to run the project. Fail!
10. Set LD_PRELOAD to the libcef in the binary_dstrib folder ~/jcef/src/binary_dstrib/linux64/bin/lib/linux64/libcef.so
11. Try 8-9 with the jcef_build path containing the libraries and finally the cef path without most of them to see what happened (the latter produces an expectedly different error)
12. Attempt again and fail!

Any idea on how to resolve this? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

On Linux it should find icudtl.dat via the symlinks. Try creating the symlinks next to the eclipse executable.
