Give an album a folder on the tablet, through Android's folder picker
Android's only export destination was the library on the server
(ExportTarget::available), because writing to the device goes through
the Storage Access Framework and nothing did. An album's folder on the
tablet is now chosen in the system's tree picker — which has its own
"Create new folder" — and exports are written into it with
DocumentsContract.
The picker answers through onActivityResult, and the main activity is
NativeActivity, whose result is not ours. FolderPicker is a translucent
activity that only asks: it starts ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE, takes a
persistable grant (a folder is chosen once and exported to for months),
leaves the URI in a static, and finishes. Rust polls it from a Slint
timer — one static call, rather than a registered native method and a
thread to deliver on.
Two things the first build on the tablet got wrong, recorded where they
are fixed:
- Our classes must be loaded through Context.getClassLoader(). The
class of what ndk_context holds is a framework class from the boot
loader, which reports every class in the APK as not found.
- What ndk_context holds is the application context, not the activity,
and starting an activity from it throws without FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK.
Saf.write creates the document (or, under Overwrite, reopens the one of
that name with "wt" so a shorter file does not keep the old tail) and
returns the name the provider actually gave it, since SAF renames on a
collision by itself; the album records that name. A tree URI reads in
the sidebar as its folder ("Pictures/Web"), not as a content:// string.

* The system's folder picker, for an album's folder on this device (FR-EXP-10).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* <h2>Why an activity of its own</h2>
|
||||
*
|
||||
* <p>{@code ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE} answers through
|
||||
* {@code onActivityResult}, and the main activity is {@code NativeActivity},
|
||||
* whose result callback is not ours to override. So this one exists only to
|
||||
* ask: it starts the picker, takes the answer, and finishes — no layout, a
|
||||
* translucent theme, nothing on screen but the system's own chooser, which has
|
||||
* its own "New folder".
|
||||
*
|
||||
* <p>The answer is left in a static for Rust to poll ({@link #poll}), rather
|
||||
* than called back into native code: a callback would need a registered
|
||||
* native method and a thread to deliver on, and a poll from the Slint timer
|
||||
* that is already running is one static call.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* <h2>The grant</h2>
|
||||
*
|
||||
* <p>A tree URI is usable only while its permission is held, and a plain
|
||||
* result grants it until the process dies. {@code takePersistableUriPermission}
|
||||
* keeps it across restarts — an album's folder is chosen once and exported to
|
||||
* for months.
