@Part(name: 'param') required File? param has compile error

[dfdgsdfg]

Describe the bug In case multipart with required and nullable with File type, It generate compile error.

• @Part(name: 'param') required File? param
• Compile Error: Property 'path' cannot be accessed on 'File?' because it is potentially null.

Errors occur only with the File type.

// @Part(name: 'param') required File? param
// g.dart
_data.files.add(MapEntry(
  'param',
  MultipartFile.fromFileSync(
    portraitImage.path,    // Compile Error: Property 'path' cannot be accessed on 'File?' because it is potentially null.
    filename: param.path.split(Platform.pathSeparator).last,
  ),
));

// @Part(name: 'param') File? param
// g.dart
if (param != null) {
  _data.files.add(MapEntry(
    'param',
    MultipartFile.fromFileSync(
      portraitImage.path,
      filename: param.path.split(Platform.pathSeparator).last,
    ),
  ));
}

Hey there, is this issue fixed fully?

I had this same issue a while back. Can you try changing your request to accept the File as an optional parameter instead?
