CefInitialize fails with wrong cef settings size

[miro]

Hi
i didn want to concatenate my issues under my post with include warnings because i dont know if they have something todo together so i decide to make new post.
Used OS is Windows 10 build 19045.3570, VS2019 Prof.
When trying to load CEF to our application the call to CefInitalize fails in libcef_dll.cc in line nr.: 99

[1109/120224.864:FATAL:libcef_dll.cc(99)] Check failed: false. invalid settings->[base.]size

CefSettings:

Code: Select all

CefSettings settings;
settings.size = sizeof(settings);
CefString(&settings.browser_subprocess_path) = csCefFullPath;
// some other settings which works previous
// Call to CefInitialize, sandbox_info is null here
m_bInitialized = CefInitialize(main_args, settings, m_cefApp.get(), sandbox_info);


libcef_dll.cc content:

Code: Select all

if (!template_util::has_valid_size(settings)) {
    DCHECK(false) << "invalid settings->[base.]size";
    return 0;
  }


What can cause that the CefSettings has an invalid size, and how to fix the proper cef settings size?
Any help would be great

I don't think CefSettings.size should be set.
Cef structures usually have traits, which initializes like this

Code: Select all

struct CefSettingsTraits {
  using struct_type = cef_settings_t;

  static inline void init(struct_type* s) { s->size = sizeof(struct_type); }
...


but the size is the sizeof of the underlying C structure, in this case cef_settings_t.
So the

Code: Select all

settings.size = sizeof(settings);

line should be removed and I think that will fix the problem.

Hi,
thanks for your answer, i didn have this until yet for testing, cause i seen this in another older post and thinking it will help me, i will remove them since it doesn't solve my problem.
I wrote in another post that i have some issues with the distribution build, some of the header files are not included properly when calling :

Code: Select all

make_distrib.bat --output-dir %binary_path% --distrib-subdir %binary_folder% --ninja-build

paths are ok and worked in previous cef builds, im in doubt if this bottom lines can have some impact on the created distributions
