[historical] Chromium tabs for cocoa applications (project no longer maintained)
OTHER License
Chromium Tabs is a Cocoa framework for building applications that works like Chromium's window system.
Important: This is currently work in progress and the framework API will change often.
Requirements: OS X 10.5 or later.
The framework is distributed with an @rpath
which means it should be embedded into your applications' Contents/Frameworks directory. In Xcode you can add a new "Copy Files" action with the "Frameworks" destination to your target.
As an alternative, with Xcode4, you can create a new workspace which includes your project and chromium-tabs.xcodeproj
. Once this is done, ChromiumTabs.framework
will be available for linking like any other built-in library.
Then you need to do at least two things:
#import <ChromiumTabs/ChromiumTabs.h>
[[CTBrowser browser] newWindow]
when your application has started (e.g. in the application delegates' applicationDidFinishLaunching:
)The example application (in examples/simple-app/
) illustrates basic usage and likes to be inspected while you drink coffee. It looks like this:
When building a "real" application you will need to sublcass at least the CTBrowser
class which factorises tabs and their content. The example application do this at a very basic level (provides custom tab content).
Visit the download section on GitHub to download the latest release of the framework and the example application.
chromium-tabs.xcodeproj
in Xcode
There is also an optional example application in the Xcode project. You build it by selecting the "Chromium Tabs" target.
