Bloc: Why BLoC constructor must have a super declared

[wailashraf71]

After updating to flutter_bloc: ^5.0.0 I got errors on my whole 30 blocs tells me to declare a super:

The superclass 'Bloc' doesn't have a zero argument constructor. Try declaring a zero argument constructor in 'Bloc', or explicitly invoking a different constructor in 'Bloc'.

Should I update every constructor manually, or this is just a bug?

Hi @wailashraf71 👋
Thanks for opening an issue!

This is not a bug. In v5.0.0 initialState was removed in favor of passing the initial state to super. Check out the migration guide for more information 👍

Oh, now I see thank you! hope you add the migration guide to the package on pub.dev change log😄

@wailashraf71 yup I can add it to the changelog 👍
It’s also on the home page at bloclibrary.dev.
