dart - How to enable Null-Safety in Flutter?

Question

I tried to use null safety, but it's giving me this error:

This requires the 'non-nullable' language feature to be enabled. Try updating your pubspec.yaml to set the minimum SDK constraint to 2.10.0 or higher, and running 'pub get'.

I changed my Dart SDK constraint from 2.7.0 to 2.10.0, but it's still showing this error.

Also, I upgraded my Dart and Flutter SDK:

dart-sdk v2.10.2 is the latest version available based on your source(s).

Flutter (Channel stable, 1.22.3, ...

Answer 1

Null safety is no longer an experiment as of Dart 2.12. It is now easy to enable.

Enabling null safety

Starting with the first Dart 2.12 versions, types will be non-nullable by default. So you just need to change your SDK constraint:

environment:
  sdk: ">=2.12.0 <3.0.0"
