Issue #141, catch security exception when the Internet permission is denied #142

Closed Wintandre closed 3 years ago

Wintandre commented 3 years ago

Uses the existing AlertDialog to prompt the user with the download failure. In the case of the SecurityException getting caught, this dialog is displayed irrespective of the 'cancel' parameter. This ensure that the app starts OK and the user is prompted about the lack of Internet Permission for the app.

Missing: translations to supported languages for "Internet Permission denied".

Thanks! Afraid I've not seen that behaviour on my devices, but unfortunately everything around DownloadManager seems to be different between devices... The added import atomic seems unnecessary and unused? Do you mind updating your pull request? Otherwise I can merge it and remove it afterwards as well.

I'm new to github and have only limited experience with git itself. I've pushed the change to remove the import, but wasn't sure whether to squash the commits or anything else, so I've left it as is. If there's anything more that I can do, just let me know.

Thanks for keeping the project alive.

That works, thanks, merged. Just FYI ideal workflow would involve a squash, specifically

make sure you have a branch just for the pull request
squash/"fixup" the commits that are just fixes
then force-push to update the patchset (github handles that fine and will update your pull request correctly)

However it's important to have a branch that is only for the pull request because force pushing has 2 consequences

if anyone has that branch checked out, a force-push will make them have a really bad day
force-push is one of the few operations that might end with you actually losing data in git both mean it should only be done to throw-away branches.

Thanks for the workflow info @rdoeffinger. Saved for future reference.
