The following FormatException was thrown while calling onChanged: Invalid number (at character 1)

I am trying to clear the initial value from and textfield and give new value, when the textfield is empty i am getting this error.

The following FormatException was thrown while calling onChanged:
Invalid number (at character 1)

^

When the exception was thrown, this was the stack: 
#0      int._handleFormatError (dart:core-patch/integers_patch.dart:129:7)
#1      int.parse (dart:core-patch/integers_patch.dart:55:14)

Below is my code.

  int _currentSliderValue = 1;
  TextEditingController sliderController = TextEditingController();

Column(
            children: [
              Slider(
                value: _currentSliderValue.toDouble(),
                max: 100,
                label: _currentSliderValue.round().toString(),
                onChanged: (double value) {
                  setState(() {
                    _currentSliderValue = value.toInt();
                    sliderController.text = _currentSliderValue.toString();
                    print(_currentSliderValue);
                  });
                },
              ),
              Padding(
                padding: const EdgeInsets.all(0.0),
                child: TextFormField(
                  decoration: InputDecoration(
                    border: OutlineInputBorder(),
                  ),
                  controller: sliderController,
                  onChanged: (text) {
                    setState(() {
                      _currentSliderValue = int.parse(text);
                    });
                  },
                ),
              ),
            ],
          )

If you wish to allow only numbers in text field add these codes in textfield

keyboardType: TextInputType.number,
        inputFormatters: <TextInputFormatter>[
FilteringTextInputFormatter.digitsOnly,],

As @M.Taha Basiri mentioned the error is because of adding a non integer value in textfield and trying to parse it. You can also add try parse while parsing the text value.

This error occurs because the int parser couldn't parse the string you're trying to parse. To fix this you should make sure that the value is correct or use int.tryParse(value).
