Multiple instances of UploadsStorageManager #5487

Open tobiasKaminsky opened 4 years ago

tobiasKaminsky commented 4 years ago

Bug:

* have 3 images in Camera

* upload them

* install this branch

* enable "upload previously"

* enable upload for folder "Camera"

* see that three items as conflict in upload list view +1

* click on one, select "keep server"

* still see three items
  --> it should be two

This is a display bug, if you refresh up to date list is displayed.

FileDownloader L645 and UploadsStorageManager L238 -> UploadListAdapter doesn't register as an Observer of UploadsStorageManager. But there are multiple instances (see screenshot) of UploadsStorageManager so it doesn't work anyway. I need your help @tobiasKaminsky on how you would make this class an effective singleton; else there is no way to properly update the view.

@tobiasKaminsky up on my answers to your comments btw.

This should per se be no problem, as all queries are against a database, which synchronizes it. I guess that we just do not have a callback (or obsverable, as you said) to detect that we have to reload the list.

Registering a ContentObserver on the database means we have to unregister it once we're done with the instance of UploadsStorageManager. A new instance of this almost every time an activity is opened (and more), this gets hard to be tracked.

Making this a singleton (should be fine) means that there's only one ContentObserver on the db.

Anyway UploadListAdapter has to either:
