== Why is this an issue?
|
|
|
|
In Dart, `const` is used to declare compile-time constants. It can also be used to declare constant values, typically provided by https://dart.dev/language/constructors#constant-constructors[constant constructors]. This constructor, if used within `const` context will create an instance as a compile-time constant. This is an example of usage of a constant constructor:

|
Declaration
|
|
|
|
[source,dart]
|
|
----
|
|
class Person {
|
|
final int age;
|
|
final String name;
|
|
|
|
const Person(this.age, this.name);
|
|
}
|
|

|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
|
|
[source,dart]
|
|
----
|
|
void f() {
|
|
var p = const Person(40, 'A');
|
|
var family = const [Person(40, 'A'), Person(39, 'B')];
|
|
}
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
When you're already inside the `const` context, there's no need to repeat the keyword. So instead of writing `const [const Person(40, 'A'), const Person(39, 'B')]` you can just write `const [Person(40, 'A'), Person(39, 'B')]`.
|
|
|
|
This rule raises an issue when `const` modifier was used within another `const` context
|
|
|
|
=== Noncompliant code example
|
|
|
|
[source,dart]
|
|
----
|
|
void f() {
|
|
var family = const [const Person(40, 'A'), const Person(39, 'B')];
|
|
}
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== Compliant solution
|
|
|
|
[source,dart]
|
|
----
|
|
void f() {
|
|
var family = const [Person(40, 'A'), Person(39, 'B')];
|
|
}
