How to handle null error of WillPopScope widget when press back button?

Question

I use WillPopScope widget into Home Page Screen to prevent app from exiting. When user press back button without confirmation alert dialog

body: WillPopScope(
  onWillPop: () => StaticUI()
      .onScreenPop(Routes.customerProcessScreen, context) as Future<bool>,
  child: SingleChildScrollView(
  ...
),
);

Future<bool>? onScreenPop(String route, BuildContext context) async => await showDialog(
  useSafeArea: true,
  context: context,
  barrierDismissible: true, // user must tap button!
  builder: (BuildContext context) {
    return Stack(
      children: [
           ...
      ],
    );
  },
);

But I get a null error when I press back button to dismiss alert (when closing alert)!

E/flutter ( 4688): [ERROR:flutter/lib/ui/ui_dart_state.cc(186)] Unhandled Exception: type 'Null' is not a subtype of type 'FutureOr<bool>'

I did some edits in my code to check for null returns , so it's working now .

Future<bool> onScreenPop(String route, BuildContext context) async {
final result = await showDialog(
  useSafeArea: true,
  context: context,
  barrierDismissible: true, // user must tap button!
  builder: (BuildContext context) {
    return Stack(
      children: [
        ...
      ],
    );
  },
);

   if (result == null) {
     return false;
    } else {
     return result;
    }
}
