Hi everyone,
I’ve seen a few threads asking this question, but none seem to have a clear answer. I need to implement caching in my app, which requires access to file paths.
From what I understand, this has been a long-standing issue — the path_provider
package, which is included by default, doesn’t seem to work properly. Even in the custom code editor, I can see methods from path_provider
being suggested, but when I compile, none of them are actually imported.
I’ve read the support policy stating that external packages and custom code aren't officially supported. However, I feel like this particular issue falls in a gray area — the package is included in the project by default, yet we can’t access its functionality or modify its code.
Does anyone know why this still hasn’t been resolved?
