Can't access extension methods

[delizondo]

@a14n thanks! I'll take a look at that. I've upgraded the sdk constraint to >=2.12.0 <3.0.0 and it's complaining everywhere about null safety, but that's another issue. I'll get back to you if the error persist after checking the null safety issue.

[delizondo]

I'm sorry but I don't have other ideas without code access :-/ Is your project public?

No, it's a private repo, but I'll try to create a public example project to show this issue

[a14n]

Thanks for the reproduction. To make it work you only have to add an import:

diff --git a/flutter_map_example/lib/map_parent_widget.dart b/flutter_map_example/lib/map_parent_widget.dart
index 90b7916..d83a562 100644
--- a/flutter_map_example/lib/map_parent_widget.dart

 import 'package:google_maps/google_maps_places.dart';
 
 import 'map_location_notifier.dart';

The only question I have now is why the import is not suggested in both VSCode and Android Studio

That's another problem for another repo ;)

[a14n]

Strange! Extensions are defined in the same library and should be valid as any other method. Did you try to restart your IDE? What's the current dart version in your pubspec.yaml ?

[delizondo]

Using VSCode as my main IDE, and if I restart the IDE the error continues

My Dart version in my pubspec.yaml is

environment: sdk: ">=2.3.0 <3.0.0"

dart --version
Dart SDK version: 2.12.2 (stable) (Wed Mar 17 10:30:20 2021 +0100) on "macos_x64"

What's the version of google_maps package?

[delizondo]

What's the version of google_maps package?

google_maps: ^5.1.0

[a14n]

Strange that pub accepts that as google_maps: ^5.1.0 requires that your lower bound in the sdk constraint should be at least 2.12.0.

After bumping your sdk constraint to environment: sdk: ">=2.12.0 <3.0.0" it should be ok.

[delizondo]

@a14n something I've found is that even if I downgrade the google_maps library to version 4.0.0 (prior to null safety changes) I get the same error as stated above.

In the release notes, for version 4.0.0 the change was:

• Migrate from dart:js to package:js.

[a14n]

Extensions are enabled starting from sdk 2.6.0. I guess that's the reason fo your failures.

[delizondo]

Updated the sdk to
sdk: '>=2.10.0 <3.0.0'

And the google_maps library to
google_maps: ^4.0.0

Restarted the IDE, did a pub get packages, and the error persist, same as the original error in the screenshot

[a14n]

I'm sorry but I don't have other ideas without code access :-/ Is your project public?

[delizondo]

@a14n I've created a new example project with the core functionality of my main project, and was able to reproduce the issue.

The repo is: https://github.com/delizondo/Flutter_Maps_example

The error should be visible here

[delizondo]

That's it!! Thanks a lot! it worked! The only question I have now is why the import is not suggested in both VSCode and Android Studio
