saf.rs and the export path's SAF branch shipped tagged FR-PLAT-AND-1,
and the matrix counted the requirement as covered. Its subject is the
library — reached through SAF grants — and Android still reaches a
library over a Nextcloud account or a folder path. What the SAF code
does is give an album a folder on the tablet, which is FR-EXP-10.
outstanding.md said the figure overstated it and should be read with
this one subtracted; it now says the tags were narrowed, and coverage
reads 161 of 192.
rustfmt over the files the albums work touched, and the album merge's
incoming row as a named struct rather than an eight-field tuple, which
clippy's type_complexity refused.
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.
