Flutter Analyze does not skip comment lines in settings.gradle #172055
Description
Steps to reproduce
In the file app/android/settings.gradle.kts, add some comments in the plugins section (must be more than 1 line).
For example:
plugins {
id("dev.flutter.flutter-plugin-loader") version "1.0.0"
// PREVIOUS AGP VERSION:
// id "com.android.application" version "0.0.0" apply false // <-- THIS VERSION IS PICKED BY flutter analyze
// CURRENT AGP VERSION:
id("com.android.application") version "8.7.3" apply false
id("org.jetbrains.kotlin.android") version "2.1.0" apply false
}Run flutter analyze.
Note that the analyzer returns the AGP version in the commented line:
flutter analyze --suggestions -v | grep gradle
[ +42 ms] LocalFile: '/app/android/build.gradle.kts' doesn't provide an AGP version. Checking settings.
[ +7 ms] LocalFile: '/app/android/settings.gradle.kts' provides AGP version: 0.0.0
│ #1 getGradleVersionFor (package:flutter_tools/src/android/gradle_utils.dart:707:3) │Expected results
Commented lines should be skipped by the analyzer:
flutter analyze --suggestions -v | grep gradle
[ +40 ms] LocalFile: '/app/android/build.gradle.kts' doesn't provide an AGP version. Checking settings.
[ +18 ms] LocalFile: '/app/android/settings.gradle.kts' provides AGP version: 8.7.3
│ [✓] Java/Gradle/Android Gradle Plugin: compatible java/gradle/agp │Actual results
(see above)
