On Dispose not triggered if closing a new window when using with MacosApp Widget: [package:desktop_multi_window]

[pauli2406]

Description

I am currently building an application with this package for macOS. In this app, I am using the plugin package:desktop_multi_window which allows me to use multiple windows. It was configured using your CLI.

In the application I am building I make use of the dispose() method to release different controllers onClose of this widget. Unfortunately, it seems that if a user closes a window by clicking the red close button is not trigger this lifecycle.

Is it possible that the close method used with this button is ignoring the flutter lifecycle?

Or am I doing something wrong?

Nvm, managed to fix it. The trick is to also add the dependency "window_manager"

Then extend the main widget of the new window with WindowListener

class _MainWidgetState extends State<MainWidget> with WindowListener {

     @override
  void onWindowClose() async {
    // Execute the logic here instead of on dispose
    super.onWindowClose();
  }
}
