flutter_usb_printer 0.3.0+1

This plugin will allow develop send data and work with usb printer on android

0.3.0+1

Breaking Changes

• minSdk raised from 16 to 24

New Features

• USB permission dialog is now shown automatically when a device is plugged in (via USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED intent-filter and device_filter.xml)

New Features

• isConnected(): New method that returns true only when a device is selected, the USB connection is open, and the bulk-out endpoint is ready

Bug Fixes

• Large print jobs: write(), printText(), and printRawText() now send data in 16 KB chunks instead of a single bulk transfer, eliminating JNI critical lock warnings on large payloads
• Transfer retry: Bulk transfers are retried up to 3 times with increasing backoff (100ms/200ms/300ms) before failing
• Endpoint stall: A USB CLEAR_FEATURE / ENDPOINT_HALT control transfer is sent after claimInterface to clear any stale stall condition on the bulk-out endpoint, fixing -1 transfer failures on first write after fresh connection
• Power-cycle reconnect: mUsbDevice is now cleared on USB_DEVICE_DETACHED and when openDevice() fails, so power-cycling the printer no longer causes a RemoteException — the next write triggers a proper re-select and permission request with the fresh device reference
• Permission flow: connect() now waits for the user to respond to the USB permission dialog before resolving — previously it returned true immediately before the user even saw the dialog
• Permission check: hasPermission() is checked before calling requestPermission() — no redundant dialog when permission is already granted
• Connection reliability: openConnection() now scans all USB interfaces (not just index 0) to find the BULK OUT endpoint, fixing printers that expose the print interface at index 1+
• Silent failure fixed: openConnection() previously returned true even when no endpoint was found, causing a silent NPE on bulkTransfer; it now returns false with a clear log message
• Transfer result: write(), printText(), and printRawText() now return the actual transfer result (b >= 0) instead of always returning true
• Null crash: Fixed NullPointerException in the USB permission broadcast receiver when EXTRA_DEVICE is absent on permission denial
• UI null crash: Fixed crash in device list when manufacturer or productName fields are null
