Dart allows to extend deferred classes.

[iarkh]

Dart VM version: 2.9.0-10.0.dev (dev) (Tue May 19 15:16:48 2020 +0200) on "windows_x64"

The following source code declares a class which extends deferred class:

import "dart:core" deferred as core;

class A extends core.ArgumentError {}

main() {
  new A();
}

Analyzer throws a compile error here whereas dart passes without any errors and warnings. Sample output is:

$> dartanalyzer test.dart Analyzing test.dart... error - Classes can't extend deferred classes. - test.dart:3:17 - extends_deferred_class 1 error found.

$> dart test.dart $

Seems like according to the Dart Language Spec dart also should throw an exception here.

The same issue exists for mixins as well. Analyzed doesn't allow to mixin deferred classes but CFE allows

import 'deferred_lib.dart' deferred as d;

class B {
}

class C extends B with d.A {} // No isses in CFE, in analyzer error - Classes can't mixin deferred classes.

main() {
  new C();
}

The issue is still exists on CFE
