Detailed explanation of how the Flutter Image component handles errors during image loading

In Flutter, the Image component can handle errors during image loading by listening for errors during loading.

Specifically, the image can be loaded using or method and the Builder mode is used to monitor the state during the image loading process.

For example, it can be implemented like this:

(
  '/',
  builder: (BuildContext context, Widget child) {
    return Center(
      child: child,
    );
  },
);

In the above code, the builder parameter is set to monitor the state during the image loading process. When the image is loaded successfully, the Image component itself is returned; when the image is loaded successfully, the Widget specified in the builder is returned.

Therefore, the situation where the image loading fails in the builder, such as displaying an error message or a backup image, etc.

In addition, if you need to display a default image when the image loads, you can use the method to achieve it. For example:

(
  'images/default_image.jpg',
  fit: ,
);

In the above code, if the specified image file does not exist or fails to load, the default image will be displayed. It should be noted that the default image needs to be placed in the project resource folder (assets/images) and specified in the file.

In addition to listening for errors during image loading using Builder mode, there are other ways to deal with errors during image loading, including:

Using StatefulWidget: You can place the Image component in a StatefulWidget and handle errors during image loading in the initState method. For example:

class CustomImage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String url;

  CustomImage({required });

  @override
  _CustomImageState createState() => _CustomImageState();
}

class _CustomImageState extends State<CustomImage> {
  late NetworkImage _image;

  @override
  void initState() {
    ();
    _image = NetworkImage();
    _image.loadErrorBuilder((BuildContext context, Object error) {
      // Handle errors during image loading    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Center(child: _image);
  }
}

In the above code, errors during image loading are handled by setting the loadErrorBuilder callback function in the initState method. When the image fails to load, the loadErrorBuilder callback function will be called, where errors can be handled.

Using Future and async: The Future and async methods can be used to load pictures asynchronously and handle errors during image loading in the exception handling of Future. For example:

Future<void> loadImage(String url) async {
  final response = await (url);
  if ( == 200) {
    // Loading the picture successfully  } else {
    // Handle errors, such as displaying an error message or backup picture, etc.  }
}

In the above code, use Future and async methods to load pictures asynchronously and handle errors during image loading in if statements. It should be noted that Future is required in UI threads, otherwise thread safety issues will occur.
