Currently, we maintain logic of touch and selection carets in different files. But they have many common functions and we cannot easily add more logic which is related to those carets. Which means our carets are fragile.

So we have a plan to refactor those carets to let them become more maintainable. We'll also add gtest for those codes.

Current wip is at [1]. I'll upload to here once it is reviewable.

ClampRectToScrollFrames generalizes IsRectVisibleInScrollFrames by
returning the clamped rect in scroll frames. IsRectVisibleInScrollFrames
could be implemented by checking whether the clamped rect is empty or
not.
Attachment #8592092 - Flags: feedback?(mtseng)
The necessary modifications are the same as SelectionCarets. For
convenience, Touch/SelectionCarets will be disabled whenever
AccessibleCaret preference is enabled.
Attachment #8592093 - Flags: feedback?(mtseng)
The new class should behave like the old TouchCaret and SelectionCarets.
I simply refactor the setUp() to support both the old and new
preferences.

_test_handle_tilt_when_carets_overlap_to_each_other() is modified
because AccessibleCaret does not inflate the caret hit rectangle as
TouchCaret/SelectionCarets did. The point for tilt caret edges need to
shrink a bit.

See AccessibleCaret.h for the class description.

Technical difference between AccessibleCaret and Touch/SelectionCarets:
The anonymous dom element containing a caret image will be created by
AccessibleCaret by using the API landed in bug 1020244 instead of being
created by nsCanvasFrame.
Attachment #8592701 - Flags: feedback?(mtseng)
See CopyPasteManager.h for the class description.

CopyPasteManager uses two AccessibleCarets to unify the functionality
provided by TouchCaret and SelectionCarets. It has "cursor" mode and
"selection" mode, which corresponds to TouchCaret and SelectionCarets,
respectively.
Attachment #8592702 - Flags: feedback?(mtseng)
See CopyPasteEventHub.h for the class description, and this link for the
state transition diagram.
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Copy_n_Paste#CopyPasteEventHub_State_Transition_Diagram

Both TouchCaret and SelectionCarets have their event handling mechanism,
which lead to a lot of code duplication. Now CopyPasteEventHub serves as
the single entry point for all events and callbacks.

We also encountered performance issues in SelectionCarets because many
unnecessary events might be dispatched to Gaia driven by the selection
changed events. SelectionCarets did not have clear internal states to
avoid this. To solve it, CopyPasteEventHub implements state classes, and
rely on the current states to call the CopyPasteManager's handler only
when it's needed.

For example, when dragging a caret, we do not interest in
NotifySelectionChanged() for updating the carets. Since we've known a
caret is being dragging, we can call UpdateCarets() directly. Hence
DragCaretState does not override OnSelectionChanged().

Good diagram, but I'd prefer it to be in the tree, either as ASCII art here or an image checked in and referenced here.

Can you explain why CopyPasteEventHub is separate from CopyPasteManager?

Are these really the right names? Would it make more sense to call these TouchCaretManager or something like that? These aren't involved in regular copy and paste so these names might confuse people.

Can you explain why you chose this approach instead of, say, having a simple state enum value, where the On... methods are on CopyPasteEventHub and switch on the current state? Maybe that would be simpler than having separate state classes with virtual methods?

Re comment 18:

One quick question about class naming. You're right that CopyPasteEventHub and CopyPasteManager might confuse people. How about call them AccessibleCaretEventHub and AccessibleCaretManager? CaretEventHub and CaretManager would be shorter, but people might think they're related to nsCaret. Which ones do you prefer?

Re comment 18:

Q: Why CopyPasteEventHub is separate from CopyPasteManager?
A: We'd like the state transitions in CopyPasteEventHub to be testable by gtest, so we put operations involving AcceesibleCaret, PresShell, Selection, etc. in CopyPasteManager. In this way, we can mock  CopyPasteManager, and test the correctness of the state transition given various events, callbacks, and the returns values of mocked methods of CopyPasteManager.

Q: Why implementing state classes with virtual methods rather than simple enum and switch case?
A: When the idea of state transition emerged, I indeed modelled them by using enum and switch case. From the SelectionCarets experience, we already know all the events and callbacks need to be handled. But the states required to model the system were not so clearly understood. Then I found it's hard to add a new state into the system. The handling functions become large, the size of nested switch case grow, and some common operation are hard to extract.

Then I start from scratch and try the states class design. I feel it's easier to add new state and focused on choosing which events or callbacks to handle by overriding them in a specific state. State::Enter() is convenient that I can put common code in it when multiple events lead the transition into this state. So is State::Leave(). All those State::OnXXX methods should be short and simple. And I hopes they're easier to read than a large nested switch case :-)

OK. Please document that in the code and make sure it's clear to maintainers which functionality belongs in which class.

Instead of adding a "none" class, it would be slightly better to simply not have a class set at all. So you would only remove the old mAppearance if it's not None/NormalNotShown, and you would only add the new appearance if it's not None/NormalNotShown.

According to [1], we support "member initializers" on all compilers now. Any specific risk not to used this feature?

Let's not add this here. This is a very hot code.

I think we could fix this by modifying nsCanvasFrame instead, to walk the frame children of the custom content container in nsCanvasFrame and call BuildDisplayList on them directly, skipping the caret elements when !IsBuildingCaret.

* Document the coordinate of Contains() and mImaginaryCaretRect
* Document mPresShell, and annotate it with MOZ_NON_OWNING_REF
* Document AccessibleCaret does not flush layout or style.

Comments not adderssed:
1. About the "none" class when setting appearance.
   I use the "none" class to add "display: none" (in ua.css) to hide all the elements subtree of AccessibleCaret. If the "none" class is not used, we'll need to set "display: none" to the default style, and add "display: block" to all the Normal/Left/Right css.

Re comment 37.

Q: Why making mFirstCaret/mSecondCaret unique pointers instead of direct members?
A: We do not want to allocate mFirstCaret and mSecondCaret in gtest since mPresShell is a nullptr there.

Q: Why doesn't AccessibleCaretManager::TapCaret() do anything?
A: Will implement in bug 1155493.
* Document mPresShell
* Document why need a script blocker in AccessibleCaretEventHub::Init()

Re comment 38

Q: Doesn't APZ be in use in all the cases we care about?
A: Currently, APZ does not in use on B2G desktop (for Gaia test) and desktop browser. We still need to synthesize scroll-end and long-tap for these platforms.

Q: Why are GetTouchEventPosition() and GetMouseEventPosition() virtual?
A: To override them in gtest. They will convert the position to be relative to root frame. We need to override them where mPresShell is nullptr in gtest.
Need info about comment 39. Thanks.

This part becomes simpler due to new part 2.2 (v5).

I've asked on dev-platform whether people think we should use them indiscriminately. Let's see what people say.

Which root frame? Can you explain this in more detail?

Addressed comment 50 by providing more detail about why needs nsAutoScriptBlocker.

Full debug log by using rr and reverse-continue to find the cause. Thank you roc!
Without using nsAutoScriptBlocker, the frame tree got destroyed after mFirstCaret's InjectCaretElement() was called.

It looks to me like the 897852.html testcase reveals a bug that we should fix in a different way --- content mutation event listeners should not fire on changes to the nsCanvasFrame's anonymous content. I'll r+ this so we can get this landed, but please file a new bug about this --- and fix it :-). It's probably just a matter of marking some content native-anonymous I guess...

This was missing an 'override' annotation on the Name() macro in NS_IMPL_STATE_UTILITIES, which causes clang 3.6 & newer to spam a "-Winconsistent-missing-override" build warning, which busts --enable-warnings-as-errors builds (with clang 3.6+).

I pushed a followup to add that keyword, with blanket r+ that ehsan granted me for fixes of this sort over in bug 1126447 comment 2:
