## Implementation

    static DetectedFace fromFile(String? path) {

      Pointer<Char>? pPath = path?.toNativeUtf8().cast<Char>();
      try {
        var err = faceSDK.id3DetectedFace_FromFile(detectedFace.handle, pPath ?? nullptr);
        if (err != FaceError.success.value) {
          detectedFace.dispose();
          throw FaceException(err);
        }
        return detectedFace;
      } finally {
        if (pPath != null) {
          calloc.free(pPath);
        }
