[camera] Disposal of camera controller should set the controller to null about flutter HOT 4 CLOSED

to set it to null at disposal automatically

Hi. I think this is quite clear. The it here is your CameraController instance that should be handled at the level of your code.

This doesn't seem to be an appropriate bug or feature request, so I'm going to close the issue. If you disagree, please write in the comments with more information and I will reopen it.

wouldn't not create unnecessary bugs like in my case

Could you elaborate on which bug was created in your case? Per my understanding, _controller is a nullable variable of CameraController, you can set it to null manually, right?

@huycozy Thanks for your comments. It's more of a suggestion and I'm not even sure whether it's a good idea. Just sharing my experience.

• Yes, I can set it to null manually.

• I expected that disposing of the controller would also set it to null: maybe I was having a wrong expectation. So, that caused the bugs since the next time I was trying to access the controlled the disposed one was not a null but lived in a _controller variable.

• I fixed the bug by manually setting it to null. I was just trying to see whether it would not be a good idea to set it to null at disposal automatically. I'd love to your views on that.
