The main difference between Chrome Frame and CEF is the target audience and how they are intended to be used. Chrome Frame as an NPAPI or ActiveX plugin is targeted at Web Developers who wish to host their Web-based applications in Chromium but must also support other browsers. CEF, on the other hand, is a library with C and C++ interfaces that is targeted at desktop application developers who wish to easily embed Chromium in existing applications and tightly integrate Web technologies with their existing stand-alone products. > And with the future direction you are thinking about, I guess you can merge > the two, or use it extensively to make your work much easier. > > Am I wrong? > You are not wrong :-). The refactoring of Chromium that made Chrome Frame possible will also make a related implementation approach easier for CEF. It may even be possible to use Chrome Frame as the basis for the next version of CEF. > > ☆PhistucK > Regards, Marshall > > > On Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 21:43, Marshall Greenblatt <magreenbl...@gmail.com > > wrote: > >> Hi All, >> >> Thanks to the wonderful support of the Chromium development community the >> Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) has survived to see its first birthday :-) >> >> In the hopes of keeping CEF alive for many years to come I've written up >> my future development plan.
