PDF file selection not working for some URIs

[vyankatesh24]

• PDF file selection not working for some URIs in Split PDF and other fragments where PDF selection is required.
• Error while converting URI to Path.
• Error:
  Unknown URI: content://downloads/public_downloads/3798

Is this just in "split PDF" or somewhere else too?

[vyankatesh24]

All fragments where we have to select PDF file(s). Like Merge PDF, Invert PDF, Add Password... etc.

Can you give me a sample URL to work with?

@ioshomebrew It's already there in issue description.

Ok, looking thru source code now to diag issue

[ioshomebrew]

Found the issue, it appears that the RealPathUtil.getRealPath is adding extra data to the selected file

[ioshomebrew]

The issue seems to be with some file explorer apps, with EZ File Explorer it didn't work because it added extra characters to the Uri, but with EX File Manager it worked fine

@vyankatesh24 Are you facing the issue with just EZ file explorer or other explorers too?

I've only tested 2 explorers so far

[ioshomebrew]

Just found a potential fix

[ioshomebrew]

I added in a feature to replace extra characters with /

[ioshomebrew]

It worked with the 2 file explorers I used

[ioshomebrew]

The Fix is now on my forked repo

@ioshomebrew Can you create a PR?

[ioshomebrew]

Just did it
