Fix some places where Debug/Release was treated as a binary switch. Makes similar changes to Windows and Linux to simplify adding profile support to those platforms in the future. This means `--profile` builds will fail on Linux and Windows for now, but that's fine since they aren't actually supported, and unlike `--release` don't provide useful functionality at the native code level. Also fixes 'stopApp' always using Debug on macOS, to avoid showing an error when running Profile (or Release). Fixes #33203
Flutter Tools
Command line developer tools for building Flutter applications.
Working on Flutter Tools
Be sure to follow the instructions on CONTRIBUTING.md to set up your development environment.
Setup
First, ensure that the Dart SDK and other necessary artifacts are available by invoking the Flutter Tools wrapper script. In this directory run:
$ ../../bin/flutter --version
Running
To run Flutter Tools from source, in this directory run:
$ ../../bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin/dart bin/flutter_tools.dart
followed by command line arguments, as usual.
Analyzing
To run the analyzer on Flutter Tools, in this directory run:
$ ../../bin/flutter analyze
Testing
To run the tests in the test/ directory, first ensure that there are no
connected devices. Then, in this directory run:
$ ../../bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin/pub run test
The tests in test/integration.shard are slower to run than the tests in
test/general.shard. To run only the tests in test/general.shard, in this
directory run:
$ ../../bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin/pub run test test/general.shard
To run the tests in a specific file, run:
$ ../../bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin/pub run test test/general.shard/utils_test.dart
When running all of the tests, it is a bit faster to use build_runner. First,
set FLUTTER_ROOT to the root of your Flutter checkout. Then, in this directory
run:
$ ../../bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin/pub run build_runner test
Forcing snapshot regeneration
To force the Flutter Tools snapshot to be regenerated, delete the following files:
$ rm ../../bin/cache/flutter_tools.stamp ../../bin/cache/flutter_tools.snapshot
