Bug Report

Problem

Empty filename (.Pic.) causes invalid file path and unable to differentiate multiple images because of the same name

What is expected to happen?

There should be different filenames for multiple files

What does actually happen?

It renames every empty filename to .Pic.jpg to every file selected from the gallery but then its complicated to differ this images as there are multiple images with same name.

NOTE:- updating cameraLauncher.java file from renaming empty filename to timestamp works for me , instead of (.Pic.)

Information

Select image from gallery ,
store its path then select another image then the previously selected image will be lost.

Command or Code

await this.camera.getPicture(this.options).then(async (imageData) => {
  this.errorFlag['imageError'] = false;
  // imageData is either a base64 encoded string or a file URI
  // If it's base64 (DATA_URL):
  // let base64Image = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + imageData;
  //this.imgSrc = this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustUrl("data:Image/*;base64," + imageData);
  // let paths = await this.filePath.resolveNativePath(imageData);
  console.log("imageData",imageData);
  if(imageData.includes("?")){
    imageData.split("?")[0];
    let fileName = imageData.split("?")[0].split('/').pop();
    let path = imageData.split("?")[0].substring(0, imageData.split("?")[0].lastIndexOf("/") + 1);
    this.file.readAsDataURL(path, fileName)
      .then(base64File => {
        this.imagesArray.push(base64File);
        this.imagePathArray.push(imageData);
      })
      .catch(() => {
          console.log('Error reading file');
      })
}

});
