rest_element_in_map_pattern

Details about the 'rest_element_in_map_pattern' diagnostic produced by the Dart analyzer.

A map pattern can't contain a rest pattern.

Description

#

The analyzer produces this diagnostic when a map pattern contains a rest pattern. Map patterns match a map with more keys than those explicitly given in the pattern (as long as the given keys match), so a rest pattern is unnecessary.

Example

#

The following code produces this diagnostic because the map pattern contains a rest pattern:

dart
void f(Map<int, String> x) {
  if (x case {0: _, ...}) {}
}

Common fixes

#

Remove the rest pattern:

dart
void f(Map<int, String> x) {
  if (x case {0: _}) {}
}
