analyzer_plugin fails to compile with analyzer 7.4

[lishaduck]

If this is a bug report, please help us by providing:

• In CI (but for some reason not locally), build_runner and dart analyze fail to run. I do use a lockfile, I do run CI with enforce-lockfile, I do see the error in my IDE locally, but I don't get an error when running the CLIs for some reason.
• I'd expect the latest versions of SDK packages to work together.
• Dart 3.8.0

This is likely caused by a misconfigured builder definition.

It seems to have been fixed, but not released for some reason:

sdk/pkg/analyzer_plugin/lib/src/utilities/change_builder/change_builder_dart.dart

Lines 1661 to 1665 in 6497b41

	var libraryToImport = resultCache?[element] ??
	await TopLevelDeclarations(resolvedUnit)
	.publiclyExporting(element, resultCache: resultCache) ??
	// Fall back to the element's library if we didn't find a better one.
	element.library2;

Very likely related: invertase/dart_custom_lint#332

temporary workaround that is working for our project for now, is to pin the analyzer and plugin versions to the last known working versions in pubspec:

  analyzer: 7.3.0
  analyzer_plugin: 0.12.0

[riscait]

In my case, I also needed to fix custom_lint_visitor.

dependency_overrides:
  analyzer: 7.3.0
  analyzer_plugin: 0.12.0
  custom_lint_visitor: 1.0.0+7.3.0

Hotfix this ASAP please.

This is actually creating a huge problem, considering that even with dependency_overrides suggestions, so far, no workaround are blocking the dart run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs, to result in massive errors on my freezed models.

I wish there is a way to find all the packages that needs a overwritten dependency in order to make it work again without depending from this problem.

I hope this issue can be solved quickly 🙏.

I had to solve it this way:

dependency_overrides:
  analyzer_plugin:
    git: 
      url: git@github.com:dart-lang/sdk.git
      ref: 8c5e06206103f8b2fd7d434ece9248ce9ac31ba4
      path: pkg/analyzer_plugin

Because I needed analyzer 7.4.x due to a bug with a generator that was failing because of the new 'null-aware-elements' syntax: rrousselGit/riverpod#4119
