I set the intent flags here:
public void createAlbum(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_PERSISTABLE_URI_PERMISSION);
String intentChooserDialog = getResources().getString(R.string.pick_image_dialog);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, intentChooserDialog), PICK_IMAGE);
}
Here in my activity result I set the persistable permissions as they are explained here:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == PICK_IMAGE) {
// Get image selection
if (data != null) {
ClipData clipData = data.getClipData();
if (clipData != null) {
int clipDataCount = clipData.getItemCount();
if (clipDataCount > 1) {
int clipIndex = 0;
BitmapUri[] bitmapUris = new BitmapUri[clipDataCount];
while (clipIndex < clipDataCount) {
ClipData.Item item = clipData.getItemAt(clipIndex);
Uri uri = item.getUri();
int takeFlags = data.getFlags();
takeFlags &= Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION;
getContentResolver().takePersistableUriPermission(uri, takeFlags);
BitmapUri bitmapUri = new BitmapUri(Uri.decode(uri.toString()), data.getFlags());
bitmapUris[clipIndex] = bitmapUri;
clipIndex++;
}
DatabaseAlbumWriter dab = new DatabaseAlbumWriter(this);
dab.execute(bitmapUris);
}
} else {
int oneImageSelected = 1;
BitmapUri[] bitmapUris = new BitmapUri[oneImageSelected];
Uri uri = data.getData();
int takeFlags = data.getFlags();
takeFlags &= Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION;
getContentResolver().takePersistableUriPermission(uri, takeFlags);
BitmapUri bitmapUri = new BitmapUri(Uri.decode(uri.toString()), data.getFlags());
bitmapUris[0] = bitmapUri;
DatabaseAlbumWriter dab = new DatabaseAlbumWriter(this);
dab.execute(bitmapUris[0]);
}
}
}
}
After the content style Uri’s are saved to a sqlite3 database, I want to load them in a gridview, but asynchronously as described here. Here is my implementation of decodeSampledBitmapFromResource from the training guide. An object with a decoded String of the Uri and the persistable permission from the original intent are passed in. These values were saved in the database and loaded here again.
protected Bitmap decodeSampledBitmapFromResource(BitmapUri bitmapUri, int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {
Bitmap bitmap = null;
Uri uri = Uri.parse(bitmapUri.getStringUri());
int permissions = bitmapUri.getPermissions();
permissions &= Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION;
try {
getContentResolver().takePersistableUriPermission(uri, permissions);
ParcelFileDescriptor parcelFileDescriptor = getContentResolver().openFileDescriptor(uri, "r");
FileDescriptor fileDescriptor = parcelFileDescriptor.getFileDescriptor();
// First decode with inJustDecodeBounds=true to check dimensions
final BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
Rect rect = new Rect(-1,-1,-1,-1);
BitmapFactory.decodeFileDescriptor(fileDescriptor, rect, options);
// Calculate inSampleSize
options.inSampleSize = calculateInSampleSize(options, reqWidth, reqHeight);
// Decode bitmap with inSampleSize set
options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFileDescriptor(fileDescriptor, rect, options);
parcelFileDescriptor.close();
} catch (NullPointerException | SecurityException | IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return bitmap;
}
}
It is here that I get this error:

If I load the bitmap from a parcelFileDescriptor with BitmapFactory.decodeFileDescriptor in the activity result I do not get this error. So, from what I can tell, the AsyncTask is a different user with different privileges. Anyone know how to assign persistable permissions to an AsyncTask? I’d rather not load bitmaps on the UI thread.
