Description
#
                    The analyzer produces this diagnostic when the first positional parameter
                    of a function named main isn't a supertype of List<String>.
                  
Example
#
                    The following code produces this diagnostic because List<int> isn't a
                    supertype of List<String>:
                  
void main(List<int> args) {}
Common fixes
#
                    If the function is an entry point, then change the type of the first
                    positional parameter to be a supertype of List<String>:
                  
void main(List<String> args) {}
If the function isn't an entry point, then change the name of the function:
void f(List<int> args) {}
