BluetoothScanException class

A custom exception for handling Bluetooth scan errors.

This exception is thrown when an error occurs during a Bluetooth scan operation, such as starting or stopping a scan. It provides a unified error handling mechanism across the Bluetooth functionality of an application.

The exception includes a message that describes the error, which can be used to inform the user about what went wrong. The message is intended to be sufficiently descriptive for debugging purposes but should be sanitized before being displayed in a user interface.

Throwing this Exception

This exception should be thrown by methods in the Bluetooth handling classes when they encounter a condition that they cannot recover from and that is related to the scanning process. It encapsulates errors that are specific to Bluetooth scan operations.

Example of throwing a BluetoothScanException:

if (someErrorCondition) {
  throw BluetoothScanException('Failed to start the Bluetooth scan.');
}

Handling this Exception

Callers of methods that can throw a BluetoothScanException should be prepared to catch and handle it. The handling could involve logging the error for debugging purposes, informing the user of the failure, and potentially retrying the operation or offering alternative options to the user.

Example of catching a BluetoothScanException:

try {
  await bluetoothService.startScan();
} on BluetoothScanException catch (e) {
  _handleBluetoothScanError(e);
}

Here, _handleBluetoothScanError could be a method that takes the exception and performs appropriate error handling.
