5. show a snackbar on the home screen with the selection
now that you’re launching a selection screen and awaiting the result,
you’ll want to do something with the information that’s returned.
in this case, show a snackbar displaying the result by using the
_navigateAndDisplaySelection() method in SelectionButton:
<code_start>
// a method that launches the SelectionScreen and awaits the result from
// navigator.pop.
future<void> _navigateAndDisplaySelection(BuildContext context) async {
// navigator.push returns a future that completes after calling
// navigator.pop on the selection screen.
final result = await navigator.push(
context,
MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => const SelectionScreen()),
);
// when a BuildContext is used from a StatefulWidget, the mounted property
// must be checked after an asynchronous gap.
if (!context.mounted) return;
// after the selection screen returns a result, hide any previous snackbars
// and show the new result.
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context)
..removeCurrentSnackBar()
..showSnackBar(SnackBar(content: text('$result')));
}
