invalid_ await_ not_ required_ annotation
The annotation 'awaitNotRequired' can only be applied to a Future-returning function, or a Future-typed field.
Description
#
The analyzer produces this diagnostic when anything other than a
Future
-returning function or a
Future
-typed field or top-level
variable is annotated with
awaitNotRequired
.
Example
#
The following code produces this diagnostic because the annotation is on a
void
-returning function:
import 'package:meta/meta.dart';
@awaitNotRequired
void f() {}
Common fixes
#Remove the annotation:
void f() {}
