I'm trying to load a website URL using RegisterJsObject in one of two cefsharp instances. The URL is received from the website (chromeBrowser1) however It wont update the window (chromeBrowser2). I tried to document the script as much as possible so it would be more easy to understand. I'm pretty sure somebody with general knowledge in C# will find my problem, I spend hours trying to find a solution but I just couldn't.
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
CefSettings settings = new CefSettings();
Cef.Initialize(settings);
chromeBrowser2 = new ChromiumWebBrowser("http://google.com") // Initializate Browser 2 FIRST ( This is the instance we want to update every X seconds using chromeBrowser2.Load("http://somewebsite.com"); later on )
{
Dock = DockStyle.Fill,
};
splitContainer1.Panel2.Controls.Add(chromeBrowser2);
chromeBrowser1 = new ChromiumWebBrowser("http://127.0.0.1/") // Initializate Browser 1 - Main website - source of data and more
{
Dock = DockStyle.Fill,
};
splitContainer1.Panel1.Controls.Add(chromeBrowser1);
chromeBrowser1.RegisterJsObject("callbackObj", new CallbackObjectForJs()); /// the link is obtained from here - See picture
}
public class CallbackObjectForJs
{
private readonly static BackgroundWorker backgroundWorker1 = new BackgroundWorker();
private readonly static ChromiumWebBrowser chromeBrowser2 = new ChromiumWebBrowser("http://facebook.com");
// IF I REMOVE ANY OF THE ABOVE I WILL RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING ERROR :
// Error CS0120 An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'Form1.backgroundWorker1'
// Error CS0120 An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'Form1.chromeBrowser2'
public void showMessage(string msg)
{
var sitelink = msg;
Console.WriteLine(sitelink); // WORKING - link is visible on console but chromeBrowser 2 is not update, still reads http://google.com
Console.WriteLine("Loading site using one of the options below"); // Can be seen on console +
// AT THIS POINT chromeBrowser2 SHOULD LOAD THE NEW URL ///
chromeBrowser2.Load(sitelink); // NOT WORKING
Console.WriteLine("Check Point 1");
backgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync(sitelink); // NOT WORKING
Console.WriteLine("Check Point 2");
}
}
private void backgroundWorker1_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e) // NOT WORKING
{
Console.WriteLine("Background Worker"); // Nothing
string link = (string)e.Argument;
Console.WriteLine("Check Point 3");
chromeBrowser2.Load(link);
Console.WriteLine("Check Point 5");
Console.WriteLine(link);
Console.WriteLine("Check Point 6");
}
Console results.
I understand that, for some reason, neither of the option I've chosen are being triggered. I have high speculations that is because of Error CS0120, which I managed to hide with making them static but that's it pretty much. I'm out of ideas. Search results got me this far.
