Not Dart compatible

Error when parsing: lib\features\auth\entities\app_theme.dart:13

final class AppTheme with _$AppTheme implements ISerializable, ICopyWith { ^ Unexpected token: FINAL (final). Expected CLASS. ✅ Generated 0 data classes

Dart is not JavaScript, we have final, abstract interface, abstract base and sealed classes.

indeed, right now genq expects the class keyword right after annotation. We should support different class modifiers though, I'll implement a fix.

[jankuss]

We can extend the parser to support class modifiers. The analyzer would still not be happy with the generated output though.

Take this example:

@genq
final class Geo with _$Geo {
  factory Geo({
    required String lat,
    required String lng,
  }) = _Geo;
}

The generated _Geo constructor needs to implement from Geo:

abstract class _Geo implements Geo { /* ... */

If Geo is a final class, this is not valid dart code. We probably need to put this final modifier in the generated classes as well to avoid the error:

bin/json.genq.dart:130:16 • The type '_Geo' must be 'base', 'final' or 'sealed' because the supertype 'Geo' is 'final'

Don't bother.

Even equality isn't functional (the generated code only checks for reference equality, defeating the whole purpose of value equality).

Even equality isn't functional (the generated code only checks for reference equality, defeating the whole purpose of value equality).

@JCKodel this is not true - the generated equality operator checks for value equality for each field in the data class.

  final user1 = User(id: 1, name: 'JCKodel', address: Address(zip: '12345'));
  final user2 = User(id: 1, name: 'JCKodel', address: Address(zip: '12345'));

  print(user1 == user2); // This will print true

This even holds true for lists/sets/maps

  final user1 = User(id: 1, name: 'JCKodel', addresses: [Address(zip: '12345')]);
  final user2 = User(id: 1, name: 'JCKodel', addresses: [Address(zip: '12345')]);

  print(user1 == user2); // This will print true

Do you have an example where this breaks for you? Are you sure you are not accidentally using another class as a field which does not support value equality?
