Detailed Description

The sandbox is used to restrict sub-processes (renderer, GPU, etc) from directly accessing system resources.

This helps to protect the user from untrusted and potentially malicious Web content. See https://chromiumembedded.github.io/cef/sandbox_setup for usage details. See include/wrapper/cef_library_loader.h for example usage.

Function Documentation

cef_sandbox_destroy()

CEF_EXPORT void cef_sandbox_destroy

(

void *

sandbox_context

)

Destroy the specified sandbox context handle created by cef_sandbox_initialize().

cef_sandbox_initialize()

CEF_EXPORT void * cef_sandbox_initialize	(	int	argc,
		char **	argv
	)

Initialize the sandbox for this process.

Returns the sandbox context handle on success or NULL on failure. The returned handle should be passed to cef_sandbox_destroy() immediately before process termination.

cef_scoped_sandbox_destroy()

void cef_scoped_sandbox_destroy

(

void *

sandbox_context

)

Destroy the specified scoped sandbox handle created by cef_scoped_sandbox_initialize().

cef_scoped_sandbox_initialize()

void * cef_scoped_sandbox_initialize	(	int	argc,
		char **	argv
	)

Initialize the scoped sandbox for this process.

Returns an opaque handle on success or NULL on failure. The returned handle should be passed to cef_scoped_sandbox_destroy() immediately before process termination. This is a wrapper around CefScopedSandboxContext for C API users.
