I'm trying to develop "BLE Control App" with using flutter_Blue. I added a tab bar so I want to Maintain Bluetooth State "Connect". so I'm trying to use Provider, To set connection state but I have an error like this.
**======== Exception caught by foundation library ====================================================
The following assertion was thrown while dispatching notifications for BluetoothProvider:
setState() or markNeedsBuild() called during build.
This _InheritedProviderScope<BluetoothProvider> widget cannot be marked as needing to build because the framework is already in the process of building widgets. A widget can be marked as needing to be built during the build phase only if one of its ancestors is currently building. This exception is allowed because the framework builds parent widgets before children, which means a dirty descendant will always be built. Otherwise, the framework might not visit this widget during this build phase.
The widget on which setState() or markNeedsBuild() was called was: _InheritedProviderScope<BluetoothProvider>
value: Instance of 'BluetoothProvider'
listening to value
The widget which was currently being built when the offending call was made was: Consumer<BluetoothProvider>
dirty
dependencies: [_InheritedProviderScope<BluetoothProvider>]
When the exception was thrown, this was the stack:
#0 Element.markNeedsBuild.<anonymous closure> (package:flutter/src/widgets/framework.dart:4138:11)
#1 Element.markNeedsBuild (package:flutter/src/widgets/framework.dart:4153:6)
#2 _InheritedProviderScopeElement.markNeedsNotifyDependents (package:provider/src/inherited_provider.dart:531:5)
#3 ChangeNotifier.notifyListeners (package:flutter/src/foundation/change_notifier.dart:243:25)
#4 BluetoothProvider.startScan (package:flutter_joystick/provider/bluetooth_provider.dart:46:5)
...
The BluetoothProvider sending notification was: Instance of 'BluetoothProvider'**
this is my bluetooth provider code
class BluetoothProvider with ChangeNotifier{
final String SERVICE_UUID = "0000ffe0-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb";
final String CHARACTERISTIC_UUID="0000ffe1-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb";
final String TARGET_DEVICE_NAME="HMSoft";
FlutterBlue flutterBlue = FlutterBlue.instance;
StreamSubscription<ScanResult> scanSubScription;
BluetoothDevice targetDevice;
BluetoothCharacteristic targetCharacteristic;
BluetoothState bluetoothState;
String connectionText="";
String joystick="";
startScan(){
connectionText="Start Scanning";
scanSubScription = flutterBlue.scan().listen((scanResult){
if(scanResult.device.name==TARGET_DEVICE_NAME){
print("Device Found");
stopScan();
connectionText="Found Target Device";
targetDevice = scanResult.device;
}
}, onDone: () => stopScan());
notifyListeners();
}
stopScan(){
scanSubScription?.cancel();
scanSubScription=null;
notifyListeners();
}
connectToDevice() async{
if(targetDevice==null) return;
connectionText = "Device Connecting";
await targetDevice.connect();
print("Device Connected");
connectionText="Device Connected";
discoverServices();
notifyListeners();
}
disconnectFromDevice(){
if(targetDevice==null) return;
targetDevice.disconnect();
connectionText="Device Disconnected";
notifyListeners();
}
discoverServices() async{
if(targetDevice==null) return;
List<BluetoothService> services = await targetDevice.discoverServices();
services.forEach((service) {
if(service.uuid.toString() == SERVICE_UUID){
service.characteristics.forEach((characteristc) {
if (characteristc.uuid.toString() == CHARACTERISTIC_UUID) {
targetCharacteristic = characteristc;
writeData("Connect Complete!\r\n");
connectionText = "All Ready with ${targetDevice.name}";
}
});
}
}
);
notifyListeners();
}
writeData(String data) async{
if(targetCharacteristic==null) return;
List<int> bytes = utf8.encode(data);
await targetCharacteristic.write(bytes);
notifyListeners();
}
}
Funny, the Bluetooth connection is progressing, but the error written above keeps coming up through the console window.
The first page of the Tab Bar is the joystick page, and Bluetooth is connected due to an error, but the joystick is not working.
Here is Joystick code
class JoyPad extends StatefulWidget {
@override
_JoyPadState createState() => _JoyPadState();
}
class _JoyPadState extends State<JoyPad> {
BluetoothProvider _bluetoothProvider;
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
_bluetoothProvider = Provider.of<BluetoothProvider>(context,listen:false);
return Consumer<BluetoothProvider>(
builder:(context,provider,child) {
_bluetoothProvider.startScan();
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text(_bluetoothProvider.connectionText),
backgroundColor: Colors.indigoAccent,
actions: <Widget>[
IconButton(
icon: Icon(Icons.bluetooth), iconSize: 30,
onPressed: () {
_bluetoothProvider.connectToDevice();
print(_bluetoothProvider.bluetoothState.toString());
},
),
IconButton(
icon: Icon(Icons.bluetooth_disabled), iconSize: 30,
onPressed: () {
_bluetoothProvider.disconnectFromDevice();
print(_bluetoothProvider.bluetoothState.toString());
}),
],
),
body: joystickWidget(),
);
});
}
}
Additionally, the provider does not "setState" so I try to display connection text according to the status change on the App Bar, but it is not possible. I would also appreciate it if you could tell me how to solve it.
