The application crashed when command not found

[jlia0]

Hello, there is an issue that when using a non-existing command (like shell.run('abc123')), the whole application would crash. Is there a way to fix this?

Hi and thanks for the report. Do you have more information on how to reproduce (platform mac, linux, win?, debug/release)?. Does it crash if you surround the call with a try/catch?

Does it crash if you surround the call with a try/catch?

try/catch is working only when we run the app using flutter run (even in release mode). However, when we build the app and run it directly, it just crashes.

@mannprerak2 On which platform are you seeing this? MacOS requires special settings (#36 (comment))

[mannprerak2]

Yes, I did add this to Release.entitlements

<key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key>
<false/>

This however seems to be an issue with flutter than this package, even Process.run is crashing the app.

@alextekartik thanks for pointing out that comment, I managed to fix the crash and get an exception by adding this to my AppDelegate.swift file, see #36 (comment) -

  override func applicationDidBecomeActive(_ notification: Notification) {
        signal(SIGPIPE, SIG_IGN) //Ignore signal
  }
