Detecting holding right clicks

I tried my best to look for any possible solutions to detecting long right clicks, but so far I haven't found any viable solution for PMMP. I remember seeing a similar discussion somewhere, but cannot locate it. Any ideas? I saw bukkit people spawning fake shields but they aren't implemented in MCPE (I'm out of the loop, what is it called now?) yet.

 

Also something I wanted to do while I was working on guns' fire rate (that was before mcpe1.2)
Try this:

PHP:

/** @var Player */
ServerScheduler::scheduleRepeatingTask(new class($plugin, $player) extends PluginTask{

    /** @var Player */
    private $player;

    public function onRun(int $tick) : void{
        if($this->player->isUsingItem()){
            $this->player->sendPopup("You are currently holding ".$this->player->getInventory()->getItemInHand());
        }else{
            $this->getPlugin()->getServer()->getScheduler()->cancelTask($this->getTaskId());
        }
    }
}, 1);


 

I actually didn't know there was an isUsingItem function. Thanks!

However, it doesn't seem to detect when I let go of the hold?
