I start my CEF application with the below code
void EmtpyThreadFunc()
{
// create one infinite loop thread to keep the process alive
while (true)
{
sleep(1000);
}
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
std::string name = "MyTestProject";
//std::thread sampleThread(EmtpyThreadFunc); // Enabling this causes the program to crash
// Parse command-line arguments.
auto commandLine = CefCommandLine::CreateCommandLine();
commandLine->InitFromArgv(argc, argv);
// Create a ClientApp of the correct type.
CefRefPtr<CefApp> app;
/* code to initialize app is removed */
CefMainArgs args(argc, argv);
// Execute the secondary process, if any.
int exitCode = CefExecuteProcess(args, app, NULL);
if (exitCode >= 0)
{
return exitCode;
}
// rest of codes
}
Enabling sampleThread
which does nothing but run an infinite while loop causes my CEF application to exit with SIGTRAP.
The stack is given below
Program terminated with signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.

I'm using CEF 81.2.16 in Linux, saw almost the same issue with CEF 121 also. the following command line args are used.
--no-sandbox --x=0 --y=0 --width=1281 --height=801 --disable-pinch --disable-web-security --log-severity=disable --ignore-certificate-errors --showDevTools
The sandbox initialization requires that other threads are not spawned in pre-sandbox code. --no-sandbox
doesn't disable this requirement. You may not create threads before the call to CefExecuteProcess()
.
