Describe your changes
The changes in this PR will prevent situations where a call to
TextField::deleteBackward
is made for every single character when deleting text in large blocks, such as via a Select All -> Backspace operation using the Android virtual keyboard. When many consecutive calls todeleteBackward
are made in a single update/frame, it seems to result in a crash.Just note that this does not change the behavior when the user is deleting one character at a time, since it will still call
TextField::deleteBackward
once per character. The test cases in cpp-tests,49:Node: Text Input
confirm that the behaviour is still the same.Issue ticket number and link
