Not a CI break — a "current stable" break

CI is pinned to Flutter 3.41.6, where material.dart re-exports
CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder. On the pin this file is fine and main is green.

On 3.44.x that re-export is gone, and flutter analyze reports 5 errors in a
file the contributor never touched:

error - The function 'CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder' isn't defined - lib/theme/theme.dart:214:29
error - The function 'CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder' isn't defined - lib/theme/theme.dart:215:31
error - Invalid constant value                                        - lib/theme/theme.dart:214:29
error - The values in a const map literal must be constant            - lib/theme/theme.dart:214:29
error - The values in a const map literal must be constant            - lib/theme/theme.dart:215:31

One missing symbol, then four knock-on errors as the surrounding const PageTransitionsTheme map loses its constant value.

The fix is the one this file already wrote down

theme.dart predicted this precisely and left the remedy in a comment:

// ...so if you bump the pin and this suddenly fails to resolve, re-add:
//   import 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart' show CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder;

This PR takes that import instead of leaving it as an instruction, so the file no
longer depends on which library happens to re-export the symbol in a given release.
The comment above it is updated to explain why the import is now unconditional.

Why this is safe on the pinned toolchain too

  • material.dart re-exports the same declaration. Dart reports an ambiguity only
    when two different declarations share a name, so on 3.41.6 the analyzer simply
    sees one element reachable by two routes — not a conflict.
  • The show clause is load-bearing. An unscoped import 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart';
    would collide with material, which declares its own Card, Switch, Divider and
    others. Only the one symbol is pulled in.

Verification

On Flutter 3.44.6:

  • flutter analyze lib/5 errors → clean
  • flutter test test/boot_splash_test.dart (builds the theme) — 4 passed

I could not test on 3.41.6 locally; CI covers that, and the reasoning above is why it
should be a no-op there. If CI disagrees I'd rather find out on this one-line change
than inside a feature PR.

Out of scope

This does not fix the separate phosphor_flutter 2.1.0 breakage on newer Flutter —
class PhosphorIconData extends IconData fails now that IconData is final, which
blocks widget tests independently of this file. That needs a dependency bump and is a
different change; flagging it since it is the other thing a contributor on current
stable will hit immediately.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved compatibility across supported Flutter versions.
    • Prevented naming conflicts between Cupertino and Material components.

CI is pinned to Flutter 3.41.6, where material.dart re-exports
CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder, so this is green on the pin and is not a
broken build. On 3.44.x that re-export is gone and `flutter analyze` fails
with "The function 'CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder' isn't defined", plus 4
knock-on errors as the surrounding `const` PageTransitionsTheme map loses its
constant value. Anyone developing on current stable hits 5 errors in a file
they did not touch.

theme.dart already predicted exactly this and wrote down the remedy:

    // ...so if you bump the pin and this suddenly fails to resolve, re-add:
    //   import 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart' show CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder;

This is that import, taken rather than left as a comment, so the file no longer
depends on which library happens to re-export the symbol this month.

Safe on both toolchains: material.dart re-exports the SAME declaration, and
Dart reports an ambiguity only when two DIFFERENT declarations share a name, so
the pin sees one element reachable by two routes. The `show` clause is
load-bearing — an unscoped cupertino import would genuinely collide with
material, which declares its own Card, Switch and Divider.

Verified on 3.44.6: `flutter analyze lib/` goes from 5 errors to clean, and
test/boot_splash_test.dart (which builds the theme) passes. Not verifiable
locally on 3.41.6 — CI covers that, and the reasoning above is why it should
be a no-op there.

Scope: this does NOT address the separate phosphor_flutter 2.1.0 breakage on
newer Flutter (PhosphorIconData extends IconData, now a final class), which
blocks widget tests independently of this file.

The theme file imports CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder from cupertino.dart with a restricted import scope. The existing iOS/macOS transition configuration remains supported.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 90661

The change restores analysis on Flutter 3.44.x but breaks the pinned Flutter 3.41.6 toolchain, causing the project’s analysis checks to fail there. The PR should not merge until the import works across supported SDKs or the SDK pin and workflows are updated together.

ran the workflow on this (it was sitting on action_required, not actually failing) and it goes red on the pinned toolchain:

warning • The library 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart' doesn't export a member with the shown name
          'CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder' • lib/theme/theme.dart:42:46 • undefined_shown_name
warning • Unused import: 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart' • lib/theme/theme.dart:42:8 • unused_import

so the "safe on BOTH toolchains" bit doesn't hold — on 3.41.6 cupertino.dart doesn't export it at all, material.dart does. the symbol MOVED rather than being re-exported from both, which means an unconditional import can only ever be right for one of the two.

the problem you're describing is real though, i hit it locally: on a newer flutter this file fails to resolve and takes the surrounding const map down with it. so this wants solving, just not this way.

to land it needs the CI pin moved to 3.44.x in the same PR, so the import and the toolchain agree. heads up if you go that route — bumping the pin also surfaces phosphor_flutter 2.1.0, which extends IconData and stops compiling once IconData became final. that's the other half of the same upgrade and it's the bigger half.

leaving this open rather than closing it, the underlying issue stands.

…class

the import this PR added goes red on the pinned toolchain:

  warning • The library 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart' doesn't export a member
            with the shown name 'CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder'
  warning • Unused import: 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart'

the class MOVED rather than being re-exported by both. on 3.41.6 material.dart
has it and cupertino.dart does not; on 3.44.x it is the other way round. so no
unconditional import compiles on both, and picking either one just swaps which
toolchain breaks.

spreading PageTransitionsTheme's own default builders avoids naming it at all —
the SDK already maps iOS/macOS to whatever Cupertino builder that version ships,
so we override only android/fuchsia/linux/windows and inherit the rest. works on
both directions, and keeps the interactive edge-swipe-back that the explicit iOS
entry existed to preserve.

the map is no longer const (spreading a getter), which costs nothing here — it
is built once per theme.

note for whoever bumps the flutter pin: 3.44.x also breaks phosphor_flutter
2.1.0, which extends IconData and stops compiling now that IconData is final.
2.1.0 is the latest release, so that one has no upstream fix yet and is the real
blocker on moving the pin.

@coderabbitai review

reworked this — the original import went red on the pinned toolchain (cupertino.dart does not export CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder on 3.41.6; the class moved rather than being re-exported by both). now spreading PageTransitionsTheme's default builders instead of naming the class, which compiles on both 3.41.6 and 3.44.x. would like a look at whether inheriting the SDK defaults could change iOS/macOS behaviour in a way the explicit entry did not.

@abdulsaheel No finding on this rework.

For Flutter 3.41.6 and Flutter 3.44.6, PageTransitionsTheme maps both TargetPlatform.iOS and TargetPlatform.macOS to CupertinoPageTransitionsBuilder. The new map preserves those entries and replaces only Android, Fuchsia, Linux, and Windows. Therefore, iOS and macOS behavior is equivalent to the previous explicit entries on both toolchains.

test/nav_back_swipe_test.dart also verifies the iOS edge-swipe path with popGestureEnabled and a completed back gesture.

The only intentional semantic change is for a future Flutter SDK that changes its Apple default builder. This implementation will adopt that new SDK default. That is consistent with the stated compatibility goal.

coderabbit flagged the import against the pinned toolchain and it was right about that — but its suggestion (point the import at material.dart instead) only moves the breakage: that is correct on 3.41.6 and fails on 3.44.x, which is the case this PR opened for. the review is anchored to 906618e, the original commit, not the current head.

current head does not import the class from either library. it spreads PageTransitionsTheme's default builders and overrides only android/fuchsia/linux/windows, so iOS/macOS inherit whatever that SDK version ships and nothing here names the symbol that moved.

verified both directions: analyze clean locally on 3.44.9, and CI green on the pinned 3.41.6. that pair is the actual test — either import alone can only pass one of them.

merging.
