1500059 - updateCursorAnchorInfo callbacks not received after requestCursorUpdates

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(GeckoView :: General, defect, P2)

Description

[Manuel Martin]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.67 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

- Set a GeckoSession TextInput delegate: session.getTextInput().setDelegate(this);
- Get an InputConnection through session.getTextInput().onCreateInputConnection()
- Request cursor updates:  inputConnection.requestCursorUpdates(InputConnection.CURSOR_UPDATE_MONITOR);


Actual results:

No updates are received through the delegate's updateCursorAnchorInfo method.


Expected results:

Cursor updates should be received through the delegate method.

This is necessary so custom UI can be placed around the currently focused input field. ie. smart positioning a custom keyboard below the currently focused input field. Specifically for projects that need to implement custom keyboards like Firefox Reality.

64=wontfix because FxR 1.1 is using GV 65 and this issue doesn't block Focus 8.0 from using GV 64.

Manuel, is this still an issue? Randall says this bug might be fixed now.
