[camera_platform_interface] VideoRecordedEvent == and hashCode disagree

Steps to reproduce

final a = VideoRecordedEvent(1, XFile('/tmp/video.mp4'), null);
final b = VideoRecordedEvent(1, XFile('/tmp/video.mp4'), null);
print(a == b);                 // true
print(a.hashCode == b.hashCode); // false

final c = VideoRecordedEvent(1, XFile('/tmp/other.mp4'), null);
print(a == c);                 // true

Expected results

Events that are == have the same hashCode, and events for different video files aren't equal.

Actual results

VideoRecordedEvent.operator == doesn't compare file, but hashCode hashes the XFile object itself. XFile has no value equality, so:

two events for the same recording (for example, one created by VideoRecordedEvent.fromJson) are == but have different hash codes, which breaks the ==/hashCode contract and makes them misbehave in sets and maps;
two events for different files compare equal.

Package version

camera_platform_interface 2.15.0 (main as of today)

@ChandraChaan

@ChandraChaan Thanks for the report. I was able to reproduce the issue locally. Routing to team-ecosystem for further investigation.

Reproduction code

import 'package:material_ui/material_ui.dart';
import 'package:camera_platform_interface/camera_platform_interface.dart';

void main() {
  final a = VideoRecordedEvent(
    1,
    XFile('/tmp/video.mp4'),
    null,
  );

  final b = VideoRecordedEvent(
    1,
    XFile('/tmp/video.mp4'),
    null,
  );

  final c = VideoRecordedEvent(
    1,
    XFile('/tmp/other.mp4'),
    null,
  );

  debugPrint('a == b: ${a == b}');
  debugPrint('a.hashCode == b.hashCode: ${a.hashCode == b.hashCode}');
  debugPrint('a == c: ${a == c}');

  runApp(
    const MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        body: Center(
          child: Text('Check the terminal for reproduction results.'),
        ),
      ),
    ),
  );
}

Output:

a == b: true
a.hashCode == b.hashCode: false
a == c: true

Thanks for confirming! The fix is in flutter/packages#13452. Its tests cover both cases from your sample: equal events now have equal hash codes, and events with different files are no longer equal. It's a draft for now because I already have two open PRs in flutter/packages; I'll mark it ready for review as soon as one of them lands.
