Focus-android: Dropdown on geckoView is not working.

[shinilms]

The dropdown on a webpage loaded in geckoview is not working. When clicked on the dropdown, nothing happens. I'm using the geckoview inside my app and it doesn't work in focus(geckoview build) either.

FYI @snorp

[pocmo]

Thank you for your report. The GeckoView version of Focus is not really supported by us. However I linked this issue from the meta issue in case we are going to switch to GeckoView in the future.

[shinilms]

Thank you for the response. Is there any way I can get the source code for geckoview-latest.aar used in ff?

[pocmo]

Yeah, you need to setup a Firefox for Android build, following this guide (pick the simpler "front-end" build):
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Build_Instructions/Simple_Firefox_for_Android_build

After that you can run "./gradlew tasks" and you should see a task like "geckoview:assembleReleaseWithGeckoBinaries" (I do not remember the actual name). This task will produce the AAR and you can replace it in your Focus build.

[shinilms]

Hell

I ran the ./gradlew tasks command as you said and the following is the
result I got. Can you tell me the exact task which will produce the
geckoView AAR file?

Hello again,

Assuming the gradle task you meant was "assembleWithGeckoBinaries -
Assembles all WithGeckoBinaries builds", I ran it and the build was
successful. But I couldn't find any AAR files generated. Can you help me
with this? Will the AAR file be generated automatically after the gradle
task? If so, where can I find it? Or do I need to export geckoView as a
library?

The following steps should create the AAR:

```shellsession
$ ./mach build
$ ./mach package
$ ./mach gradle geckoview:assembleWithGeckoBinaries
````

After that you should find the AAR in:

objdir-frontend/gradle/build/mobile/android/geckoview/outputs/aar

Note that objdir-frontend is the name I've set in mozconfig. The directory might be named differently in your case (or be generated). Usually it's a folder that starts with obj.

[shinilms]

Thank you for your time. It's working. And one more thing, What do I need
to do to get vouched in Mozillians?

There's a wiki page about that:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mozillians/Vouching

How do I get vouched?

Contribute! Once you have contributed significantly to any of Mozilla's projects, ask the people you are working with to vouch you on Mozillians.org. They will either do so, or will encourage you to make a few more contributions first.

[ekager]

Fixed

[trainoasis]

@ekager where was this fixed? Trying GeckoView via adb with

 geckoview_channel = "armeabi-v7a"
  geckoview_version = "73.0.20200217142647"

and dropdowns don't open still. Am I expecting something I shouldn't ?
