JxBrowser 6.1
We are happy to announce a new version of JxBrowser.
We discovered that the license checking mechanism has issue with support expiration date parsing in JxBrowser 6.0, 6.0.1, and 6.0.2. This issue leads to license checking error when support expiration date in the license file is reached. The issue has been fixed in JxBrowser 6.1. We strongly recommend that all our customers who use 6.0, 6.0.1, or 6.0.2 upgrade to JxBrowser 6.1 or higher.
JxBrowser 6.1 contains the following features and improvements:
- JavaScript-Java Bridge API has been improved. Now API allows injecting any Java objects into JavaScript code on the loaded web page and calling Java object’s methods directly from JavaScript.
- The
ScriptContextListener
has been implemented. It allows getting notifications when web page has been loaded but JavaScript on it has not been executed yet. - The
LocalStorage
andSessionStorage
API has been implemented. - Functionality that allows accessing PUT and PATCH data of HTTP request’s body has been implemented.
- Functionality that allows getting frame IDs hierarchy on the loaded web page has been added.
- PluginManager API has been extended with additional methods. Now you can get information about plugin type and check whether Chromium supports NPAPI plugins or not.
- Certificate API has been extended with additional methods that allow getting more information about SSL certificate.
- Communication between Java and Chromium processes is based on shared memory now (instead of sockets in previous versions). Data transferring between Java and Chromium processes now works ~10 times faster.
