type_ annotate_ public_ apis
Missing type annotation on a public API.
Description
#The analyzer produces this diagnostic when the declaration of part of the public API of a package doesn't have explicit type annotations.
Example
#
The following code produces this diagnostic because the function
f
doesn't have an explicit return type and the parameters
x
and
y
don't
have explicit types:
f(x, y) => '';
Common fixes
#Add type annotations to the API:
String f(int x, int y) => '';
