build runner package in my flutter app for JSON serialization not working-CodePudding

I'm using build_runner package in my flutter app for JSON serialization. I've correctly installed it in pubspec.yaml file under dev dependencies. but when I try to use flutter pub run build_runner build it releases the following.

    C:\Users\MoBix\Music\islamic_social_media>flutter pub run build_runner build
Unhandled exception:

What is the fix for this?

CodePudding user response：

It's interesting that it points to .dart_tool/flutter_gen/pubspec.yaml. This issue mentions this problem when generate: true is set in the pubspec.yaml.

If you don't need that, try removing it. Also, a flutter clean and flutter pub get might be necessary.
