Bug 58921 – [chromium] linux chromium doesn't set click count for mouse up events in WebInputEventFactory.cpp.

• Component: WebKit Misc.
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

WebKit/chromium/src/gtk/WebInputEventFactory.cpp doesn't set clickCount for mouse up events.

We probably want to have similar behavior as the win implementation.

I will upload a patch soon.

Set click count for mouse up events, using similar algorithm as win implementation.

The reason why we need such a fix is that the Pepper API passes this information to plugins, and some consumers (e.g., Flash) need it to detect double-clicks.

Please explain what this is breaking (ppapi, flash, whatever).

Why do we need to reset here?

Done.

I am not sure whether this is very reasonable, but I tried to follow the behavior of the win implementation.

I think this patch is correct, but it would be nice to add a layout test for this.  The benefit of a layout test is that it would ensure that we get consistent results across platforms.  Specifically, you can use window.eventSender.leapForward and mouseDown/Up to simulate mouse events.  You might need to add eventSender.clickCount() for this.  This could be a follow up patch.

(+avi since I think he touched this code a bunch in the past)

Hi, Tony.

Thanks for your review!
I will work on a layout test in a follow up patch.

Do you mean I should wait for avi's feedback before committing the patch?

I think it's fine to commit now.  We can revert if avi has additional feedback.

Please make sure the layout tests pass before committing.

Thanks!
