ChromiumWebBrowser Class

Create a new OffScreen Chromium Browser. If you use LegacyBindingEnabled = true then you must set automaticallyCreateBrowser to false and call CreateBrowser(IWindowInfo, IBrowserSettings) after the objects are registered. The underlying Chromium Embedded Framework(CEF) Browser is created asynchronouly, to subscribe to the BrowserInitialized event it is recommended that you set automaticallyCreateBrowser to false, subscribe to the event and then call CreateBrowser(IWindowInfo, IBrowserSettings) to ensure you are subscribe to the event before it's fired (Issue https://github.com/cefsharp/CefSharp/issues/3552).

Create the underlying browser. The instance address, browser settings and request context will be used.

Create the underlying CEF browser. The address and request context passed into the constructor will be used. If a ActionT delegate was passed into the constructor it will not be called as this method overrides that value internally.

Releases all resources used by the ChromiumWebBrowser object

Releases unmanaged and - optionally - managed resources for the ChromiumWebBrowser

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

Finalizes an instance of the ChromiumWebBrowser class.

Returns the current CEF Browser Instance

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Starts a task that waits for the next rendering from Chrome. Chrome also renders the page loading, so if you want to see a complete rendering, only start this task once your page is loaded (which you can detect via FrameLoadEnd or your own heuristics based on evaluating JavaScript). It is your responsibility to dispose the returned Bitmap. The bitmap size is determined by the Size property set earlier.

Immediately returns a copy of the last rendering from Chrome, or null if no rendering has occurred yet. Chrome also renders the page loading, so if you want to see a complete rendering, only start this task once your page is loaded (which you can detect via FrameLoadEnd or your own heuristics based on evaluating JavaScript). It is your responsibility to dispose the returned Bitmap. The bitmap size is determined by the Size property set earlier.

Returns a string that represents the current object.

Occurs when the browser address changed. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread. (The exception to this is when you're running with settings.MultiThreadedMessageLoop = false, then they'll be the same thread).

Event called after the underlying CEF browser instance has been created. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

(The exception to this is when you're running with settings.MultiThreadedMessageLoop = false, then they'll be the same thread).

Event handler that will get called when the browser is done loading a frame. Multiple frames may be loading at the same time. Sub-frames may start or continue loading after the main frame load has ended. This method will always be called for all frames irrespective of whether the request completes successfully. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event handler that will get called when the browser begins loading a frame. Multiple frames may be loading at the same time. Sub-frames may start or continue loading after the main frame load has ended. This method may not be called for a particular frame if the load request for that frame fails. For notification of overall browser load status use OnLoadingStateChange instead. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event handler that will get called when the message that originates from CefSharp.PostMessage

Event handler that will get called when the resource load for a navigation fails or is canceled. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event handler that will get called when the Loading state has changed. This event will be fired twice. Once when loading is initiated either programmatically or by user action, and once when loading is terminated due to completion, cancellation of failure. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Fired on the CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application main thread. Called when an element should be painted. Pixel values passed to this method are scaled relative to view coordinates based on the value of ScreenInfo.DeviceScaleFactor returned from GetScreenInfo.

Event handler for changes to the status message. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread. (The exception to this is when you're running with settings.MultiThreadedMessageLoop = false, then they'll be the same thread).

Occurs when [title changed]. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread.

Manually call https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-destroywindow passing in the handle returned from GetWindowHandle. This method can be used to manually close the underlying CefBrowser instance. This will avoid the WM_Close message that CEF sends by default to the top level window. (Which closes your application). This method should generally only be used in the WinForms version.

Make sure an object is bound in javascript. Executes against the main frame

Evaluate some Javascript code in the context of the MainFrame of the ChromiumWebBrowser. The script will be executed asynchronously and the method returns a Task encapsulating the response from the Javascript. The result of the script execution in javascript is Promise.resolve so even no promise values will be treated as a promise. Your javascript should return a value. The javascript will be wrapped in an Immediately Invoked Function Expression. When the promise either trigger then/catch this returned Task will be completed.
