User-Agent values setting issue

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Build the latest revision in win32
2. Run the application and set User-Agent value like (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 
6.0; WOW64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0) in onBeforeResourceLoad of 
RequestHandler class.
3. Open http://www.whatsmyuseragent.com/

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The User-Agent value has been set and passed when executing from eclipse IDE 
and the User-Agent persists for all the future requests but, while executing 
the application from command prompt, the User-Agent seems to be set, but the 
request  takes the default value (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) 
AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/37.0.2062.103 Safari/537.36) as 
User-Agent string.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
JCEF Revision: 100
CEF Binary: 3.1916.1749

Please provide any additional information below.

Values set in onBeforeResourceLoad() method

request.setMethod("GET");
request.setURL(forwardTo);
request.setFirstPartyForCookies(forwardTo);
Map<String, String> headerMap = new HashMap<String,String>();
request.getHeaderMap(headerMap);
log.info("Before removing.. " + headerMap.get("User-Agent") + " -- " + 
headerMap.get("Content-Type") + " -- " + headerMap.get("Origin"));
//headerMap.remove("Content-Type");
//headerMap.remove("Origin");
headerMap.remove("User-Agent");
headerMap.put("Accept-Language", 
"en;q=1.0,fr;q=0.9,de;q=0.8,ja;q=0.7,nl;q=0.6,it;q=0.5,es;q=0.4,zh-Hans;q=0.3,ru

headerMap.put("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; rv:31.0) 
Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0");

@#1: Those forum posts relate to the global CefSettings.user_agent value and 
the bug is https://code.google.com/p/chromiumembedded/issues/detail?id=1275.

What you're trying to do (set the user agent using a CefRequest in 
onBeforeResourceLoad) is a different issue.

Marshall,

Could you pls suggest if this will be related which part of the code? (i.e, 
either CEF builds or Java code) so that, I can try and debug for solutions or 
ideas.

Regards,
Arun

On checking further, when we run this app as standalone one, we are noticing 
that request.getMethod() returns NULL in onBeforeResourceLoad() method.

Hi Marshall,

This issue can be resolved as it's a Native Library accessing issue while we 
pack the libraries and jar files into a compressed jar. Now we have understood 
on how to pass the arguments properly.

Thanks,
Arun
