Any problems using cefclient.exe for BrowserSubprocessPath?

[Wayne Bloss]

I was curious if I could use the cefclient.exe (which is distributed with the CEF dll binaries) as the BrowserSubprocessPath.

So, I tried it out and it seemed to work:

BrowserSubprocessPath = "cefclient.exe"

1. Say I decide to use C++ to host my subprocess...do I lose the ability to do anything that I need to do from the .NET side?
   
   
2. Can you see any problems with using C++ to host the sub-processes?
   

Thank You.

Yes, cefclient can be used as child process. I'm no see any problems with it. Some questions about this was be discussed in http://www.magpcss.org/ceforum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=645&start=20#p2854 this topic.

Examine API's, some times methods marked that can be used only in render process. For example any V8 interaction (CefV8Context / CefV8Value) lives inside render process (from browser process you only post arbitrary javascript execution without return value using CefFrame.ExecuteJavascript method).

So all depends from you requirements.
