Exception has occurred. (dependOnInheritedWidgetOfExactType<_ScaffoldMessengerScope>()was called before _AccountPageState.initState() completed


**Every time I open a specific page on my App this error shows up: **

Exception has occurred. FlutterError (dependOnInheritedWidgetOfExactType<_ScaffoldMessengerScope>() or dependOnInheritedElement() was called before _AccountPageState.initState() completed. When an inherited widget changes, for example if the value of Theme.of() changes, its dependent widgets are rebuilt. If the dependent widget's reference to the inherited widget is in a constructor or an initState() method, then the rebuilt dependent widget will not reflect the changes in the inherited widget. Typically references to inherited widgets should occur in widget build() methods. Alternatively, initialization based on inherited widgets can be placed in the didChangeDependencies method, which is called after initState and whenever the dependencies change thereafter.)

          }),
        ]
      )
    );
  }
 }

Before I added this new Page a Account page comes up. And now the app crashes.

Can someone help me?


Solution

  • Because you're trying to access the ScaffoldMessenger in the initState method of your _AccountPageState class. The initState method is called before the widget is built, so the ScaffoldMessenger is not available yet.

    You can move the call to _getProfile to the didChangeDependencies method, which is called after the widget is built and the dependencies are established.
