I'm looking at the jetpack stuff to use it here on the js side. There is code in the prompt service patch to handle (my current) method of showing menus. I also have code to allow us to use native android longpress events.

Attached patch WIP Patch (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
This is a WIP in case someone wants to pick this up. I've basically hooked up a GestureEvent listener in Android which gives us native long press events. When we get them in the child, we call into a ContextMenuHelper. At that point I probably got a little too ambitious for a first round patch. I wrote this little guy that lets you register a context menu handler with a "selector" object. On longpress, your selector gets called and passed the element and can decide whether or not they can handle this. Then, we send the list of commands we have to Java where the menu is shown. Java returns the index of the selected item, and we call its "callback" property. That's all in there, but it wasn't all working last I checked. I think I saw the callbacks called, but they were failing. Other times the selectors weren't returning correctly. So.. there's some of debugging to do, and then writing a set of "default" context commands for Fennec.

Attached patch Patch v1 (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
This applies on top of my select stuff (bug 695485). It adds an object NativeWindow.contextmenu which has add({}) and remove(aId) properties. It also adds a gesture listener on GeckoSurfaceView. Gesture:LongPress messages are picked up by the contextmenu object, which then dispatches them to content before showing our native system menu. I added two commands here. One for "Open in new tab" and one for "Change Input Method". Each command can register a "context" attribute (from jetpack), which is just an object with a "matches" method. The matches method is passed the tapped element when a context menu is shown, and can return true if it should be shown. If it is selected by the user, the comands "callback" method (made up by me, since jetpack uses fancy scripts-as-strings that can be passed across processes) will be called. Background tabs aren't really supported by us yet, so "Open in new tab" is buggy.

Attached patch Patch v2 (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
I initially didn't use objects here (for the menuitems list at least) because the prompt service api I wrote takes an array. This works though, with a little hacking round the problem and looks cleaner IMO. So... thanks! Also moved the SurfaceView stuff into its own file. And moved to using the ElementTouchHelper to find elements. And did some other little fixes cleanup...

Hmm... I think we're fine going that way. When I initially started writing this I was trying to follow jetpack conventions, hoping to help out those guys. Later I decided that was silly, because they'd likely have to put a compatibility layer on top anyway. I just noticed that item.items is also still hanging around because jetpack supports submenus. menu is the only guy doing add and remove and they use: add: function(aName, aIcon, aCallback) { ... } remove: function(aId) { ... } I'll implement: add(aName, aContext, aCallback) { ... } remove(aId) { ... } I'm not a huge fan of the name "context" either. I think I'll change it to something like "selector"? This looks strangely like our old api all of the sudden. Heh.

Couldn't find one, but I filed bug 700283 for images - feel free to morph or dupe when a general contextcommands.js bug is filed.

I see no share on links and images from a webpage. Copy appears only in text boxes after you type some text. I'm trying to write a testcase but I'm not sure which options should appear in context menu for images/links/text boxes. Can somebody help me?

Can somebody help me? You should assume the current context menu is _the_ design: * No share links * No web content copy (only for text boxes) New bugs will be filed for any changes to the context menu.
Existent testcases: - https://litmus.mozilla.org/show_test.cgi?id=43151 - https://litmus.mozilla.org/show_test.cgi?id=43213 New testcases for changes will be found at context menu subgroup for every test run.
