Breaking: #33805 - ClickMenu Rewrite

====================================

See :issue:33805

Description

===========

The ClickMenu has seen some major changes under the hood. This implies some refactoring within JavaScript where existing

functionality is replaced by a AMD Module based on jQuery. The following JS methods are now replaced by respective

methods:

• showClickmenu_raw()

• Clickmenu.show()

• Clickmenu.populateData()

The new functionality is available via a global JavaScript object called TYPO3.ClickMenu which has equal

functions.

Additionally the ClickMenu is now used via AJAX completely, all non-AJAX calls are not supported anymore.

Impact

======

All third-party extensions using alt_clickmenu.php directly in the backend, or using the above JavaScript calls directly.

Affected installations

======================

Any installation using extensions having Backend modules using JavaScript functions for the ClickMenu inline

and installations using extensions using alt_clickmenu.php directly.

Migration

=========

Any use of "Clickmenu.show()" etc should be avoided and channelled through the according DocumentTemplate methods.

• BackendUtility::wrapClickMenuOnIcon()

• DocumentTemplate->getContextMenuCode()

If a backend module without a DocumentTemplate (with e.g. Extbase/Fluid) is used, this is done with a separate class

and related data attribute:

.. code-block:: html

<a href="#" class="t3-js-clickmenutrigger" data-table="be_users" data-uid="{record.uid}" data-listframe="1">
