Steps to reproduce
- Run the Flutter application on a Linux device.
- Observe the error during startup.
Expected results
The application should start without errors, and the path_provider_linux package should successfully resolve symbolic links for the application support path.
Actual results
PathNotFoundException: Cannot resolve symbolic links, path = '/proc/self/exe' (OS Error: No such file or directory, errno = 2)
Code sample
Code sample
Future<void> main() async {
WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
await init(); // Injection container initialization
runApp(MyApp());
}
init(){
final prefsWithCache = await SharedPreferencesWithCache.create(
cacheOptions: const SharedPreferencesWithCacheOptions(),
);
/// Register AppPreferences and its implementation
di.registerLazySingleton<AppPreferences>(
() => AppPreferencesImpl(
prefsWithCache,
),
);
}
class AppPreferencesImpl implements AppPreferences {
late SharedPreferencesWithCache _sharedPreferences;
set sharedPreferences(SharedPreferencesWithCache value) {
_sharedPreferences = value;
}
AppPreferencesImpl(SharedPreferencesWithCache sharedPrefs) {
_sharedPreferences = sharedPrefs;
initSharedPrefs();
}
initSharedPrefs() async {
_sharedPreferences = await SharedPreferencesWithCache.create(
cacheOptions: const SharedPreferencesWithCacheOptions(),
);
}
}
