1809919 - Implement ActivityContextDelegate in Android Components

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox for Android :: General, enhancement, P1)

Description

The PrintManager requires a true Activity context to enable printing through GeckoView.

Currently, GeckoView can access a context in the GeckoView; however, depending on how the embedder used the view, it may be a Fragment context.

This bug is to implement the view delegate ActivityContextDelegate in bug 1806191 in AC. Fenix and Focus may also need updates to retrieve the correct context. (Test by attempting to print using the returned context to ensure it is the necessary context.)

Please note that this is different than the runtime delegate Activity Delegate - see related bugs 1806191 for reasoning.

Changing the dependency order for bug 1812149. I think it may be easier to implement the ActivityContextDelegate in AC only, and then in bug 1812149 fix the context issue and connect Fenix and Focus to the new AC ActivityContextDelegate. (It is easier to test bug 1812149 if the ActivityContextDelegate is working to ensure the new base context is correct for the PrintManager.)
