Weirdness when running Flutter with any other entrypoint than lib/main.dart #16838
Description
Steps to Reproduce
- Create new Android Studio Flutter project
- Run it in simulator to check that it's fine.
- Create a duplicate of
lib/main.dart. Let's call itlib/main_alternate.dart. - Create a new Run/Debug configuration in IntelliJ
- Run
main_alternate.dart
You'll see that this confuses Flutter. I've had instances when this worked well, but other instances when main.dart was clearly running instead of main_alternate.dart. For example, breakpoints in main_alternate.dart weren't hit while breakpoints in main.dart were. Despite this, Flutter console said Launching lib/main_alternate.dart.
Flutter Doctor
Paste the output of running flutter doctor -v here.
$ flutter doctor -v
