A Flotcha worth mentioning

Time and again I encountered this error in flutter ever confused on how to solve it:

compiler message: lib/splash_screen.dart:69:28: Error: A value of type '#lib1::RiteKey' can't be assigned to a variable of type '#lib2::RiteKey'. compiler message: Try changing the type of the left hand side, or casting the right hand side to '#lib2::RiteKey'. compiler message:                   riteKey: riteKey, compiler message:                            ^ Error -32000 received from application: There are no running service protocol handlers.

This #lib1:Object #lib2:Object error was quite frustrating because there wasn’t much we were doing wrong…

I don’t know the details but this was finally solved 2 days ago on Stack Overflow(pseudo heaven for devs who get stuck)

Flutter: A value of type lib1::Object can't be assigned to a variable of type lib2::Object

well read the discussion and you see that the team is already on it!
This is the issue to track:

Recognize file entry-points that should be accessed as package URIs · Issue #33076 · dart-lang/sdk

So what do we need to do?

->Don’t use relative paths to import files in main.dart

Use absolute paths starting from the package name itself. Like:

import 'package:startup_namer/utils/question.dart';
import 'package:startup_namer/utils/quiz.dart';
import 'package:startup_namer/ui/answer_button.dart';
import 'package:startup_namer/ui/correct_wrong_overlay.dart';

And that’s it! Wishing that all your code compiles and runs well,
