This distribution contains all components necessary to build and distribute an
application using CEF on the Windows platform. Please see the LICENSING
section of this document for licensing terms and conditions.
CONTENTS
--------
cmake Contains CMake configuration files shared by all targets.
Debug Contains libcef.dll, libcef.lib and other components required to
build and run the debug version of CEF-based applications. By
default these files should be placed in the same directory as the
executable and will be copied there as part of the build process.
include Contains all required CEF header files.
libcef_dll Contains the source code for the libcef_dll_wrapper static library
that all applications using the CEF C++ API must link against.
Release Contains libcef.dll, libcef.lib and other components required to
build and run the release version of CEF-based applications. By
default these files should be placed in the same directory as the
executable and will be copied there as part of the build process.
Resources Contains resources required by libcef.dll. By default these files
should be placed in the same directory as libcef.dll and will be
copied there as part of the build process.
tests/ Directory of tests that demonstrate CEF usage.
cefclient Contains the cefclient sample application configured to build
using the files in this distribution. This application demonstrates
a wide range of CEF functionalities.
cefsimple Contains the cefsimple sample application configured to build
using the files in this distribution. This application demonstrates
the minimal functionality required to create a browser window.
ceftests Contains unit tests that exercise the CEF APIs.
gtest Contains the Google C++ Testing Framework used by the ceftests
target.
shared Contains source code shared by the cefclient and ceftests targets.
USAGE
-----
Building using CMake:
CMake can be used to generate project files in many different formats. See
usage instructions at the top of the CMakeLists.txt file.
Please visit the CEF Website for additional usage information.

REDISTRIBUTION
--------------
This binary distribution contains the below components.
Required components:
The following components are required. CEF will not function without them.
* CEF core library.
* libcef.dll
* Crash reporting library.
* chrome_elf.dll
* Unicode support data.
* icudtl.dat
* V8 snapshot data.
* snapshot_blob.bin
* v8_context_snapshot.bin
Optional components:
The following components are optional. If they are missing CEF will continue to
run but any related functionality may become broken or disabled.
* Localized resources.
Locale file loading can be disabled completely using
CefSettings.pack_loading_disabled. The locales directory path can be
customized using CefSettings.locales_dir_path. * locales/
Directory containing localized resources used by CEF, Chromium and Blink. A
.pak file is loaded from this directory based on the CefSettings.locale
value. Only configured locales need to be distributed. If no locale is
configured the default locale of "en-US" will be used. Without these files
arbitrary Web components may display incorrectly.
* Other resources.
Pack file loading can be disabled completely using
CefSettings.pack_loading_disabled. The resources directory path can be
customized using CefSettings.resources_dir_path.
* cef.pak
* cef_100_percent.pak
* cef_200_percent.pak
These files contain non-localized resources used by CEF, Chromium and Blink.
Without these files arbitrary Web components may display incorrectly.
* cef_extensions.pak
This file contains non-localized resources required for extension loading.
Pass the `--disable-extensions` command-line flag to disable use of this
file. Without this file components that depend on the extension system,
such as the PDF viewer, will not function.
* devtools_resources.pak
This file contains non-localized resources required for Chrome Developer
Tools. Without this file Chrome Developer Tools will not function.
* Angle and Direct3D support.
* d3dcompiler_47.dll (required for Windows Vista and newer)
* libEGL.dll
* libGLESv2.dll
Without these files HTML5 accelerated content like 2D canvas, 3D CSS and WebGL
will not function.
* SwiftShader support.
* swiftshader/libEGL.dll
* swiftshader/libGLESv2.dll
Without these files WebGL will not function in software-only mode when the GPU
is not available or disabled.
