Comment on attachment 742258 [details] [diff] [review] Part 1/2: Interface v1.1 We need to change the DOM interface nsIDOMMozMobileMessageThread, because we need a variable to tell the last message is sms or mms. Those changes need a superreview for DOM api change.

Yes, it's not ideal, but that's what we're shipping in 1.1. All the product stakeholders and UX have agreed to this, so it's not a valid reason to r- this patch. We should try and make things better in 1.2, but paperclip-even-for-multi-chunk-text-messages approach is agreed upon to be enough to ship for 1.1.

All the product > stakeholders and UX have agreed to this, so it's not a valid reason to r- > this patch. I'm not sure why UX and product decisions are not allowed to be discussed: showing an attachment indication in the thread view when the message has actually no attachment seems worse than not showing the indication in the thread view. I do not understand why showing that icon is so important that we are okay to show it even when it should not appear. For the moment, the only answer I got in the other bug is that MMS must have an attachment but if this can be true for sent ones, it isn't for received ones. Why don't we add something that says if the last message has an attachment instead of giving the type of the last message?
Of course they are allowed to be discussed - it was discussed by the MMS devs and the product team and UX team long ago. Unfortunately not everyone can be in every discussion. The important point is let's land this initial basic support and indicator first, and file a follow-up for further changes.

I just file a bug 868031 - B2G MMS: Find a better data structure for nsIDOMMozMobileMessageThread. Would you mind to discuss this issue in this bug?
Mounir, the paperclip tells the user that it's an MMS, which may cost money. Yes, it's not awesome. In the future we can come with some other way to indicate it's an SMS-that's-only-MMS-because-it's-too-long, but this should do that purpose for 1.1.

Mounir, thanks for your suggestion about having a .hasAttachment boolean instead of a .lastMessageType string. But we don't do that because of it can't be done in a short time. This bug blocks thread view list, and thread view list should be landed ASAP. The reason of why change to hasAttachment will take a lot of time is the design of DB for SMS and MMS. MMS pdu has a structure called multi-parts. Currently we take each part in multi-parts to Blob, even it is a plain-text. So in DB related code, we don't know this message is text only or with attachments. Sure we can know by adding more codes. But it takes time (coding, debuging, reviewing....) and we have the attribute called type in the message record. When saving the message into DB, it also saves thread related information as a thread record. Then the getThread function try to get the thread result to Messaging AP. If we want to support hasAttachment, it also means we need to deal with below situations. 1. MMS message, only has subject. 2. MMS message, has subject and text. 3. MMS message, has subject and text and attachments. 4. MMS message, no subject but has text. 5. MMS message, no subject but has text and attachments. 6. SMS message, have text. We need to find out this MMS message has real attachments(not only one text attachment). And also need to know the subject exist or not. Also the text need to replace the body in thread record. It definitely takes more time to let it happen. Another way is provide the whole message from the nsIDOMMozMobileMessageThread. I mean pass nsIDOMMozMmsMessage through ipc to Messagign AP. It means pass the all blob of last image (it might be an image, a video...) for each thread. I don't think it is a good idea. So could we use lastMessageType in this bug and find a better solution in another bug 868031 I filed? This solution came from Madrid work week. Vicamo, gene and I discussed with UX team(Ayman). We know it is not a perfect solution, but it accepted by UX team. Once this bug is land, then Messaging AP developers can land their thread view bugs in a short time. They already have WIP patches. Please feel free to ping me.Thanks.

Mounir, thanks for your suggestion. We will change the name if we are implementing it as having attachment. We need more discussion for this implementation.
