Maybe you put the package dependency in dev_dependencies but you're using the package methods in your app? If so, move the dependency to dependencies instead.

Hey, I didn't use the methods in my app yet, but I tried both. First dev_dependencies and then dependencies.

[jonbhanson]

Can you supply a minimal project that demonstrates the error?

[iwontknow]

So I have an update for you. After a restart of my computer and flutter clean && flutter pub get, it magically works. I didnt change a thing. Sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused you.

[jonbhanson]

Glad you were able to resolve it. 👍

@jonbhanson I have the same problem (flutter clean && flutter pub get doesn't fix it for me).

When I add to pubspec.yaml

dev_dependencies: 
  flutter_native_splash: ^2.3.9

then the following lines get added to GeneratedPluginRegistrant.java:

    try {
      flutterEngine.getPlugins().add(new net.jonhanson.flutter_native_splash.FlutterNativeSplashPlugin());
    } catch (Exception e) {
      Log.e(TAG, "Error registering plugin flutter_native_splash, net.jonhanson.flutter_native_splash.FlutterNativeSplashPlugin", e);
    }

and on build I get the error:

android/app/src/main/java/io/flutter/plugins/GeneratedPluginRegistrant.java:49: error: package net.jonhanson.flutter_native_splash does not exist
      flutterEngine.getPlugins().add(new net.jonhanson.flutter_native_splash.FlutterNativeSplashPlugin());

Doing grep -r net.jonhanson.flutter_native_splash . fails to find this package mentioned anywhere but GeneratedPluginRegistrant, whereas searching for the package names of other plugins in GeneratedPluginRegistrant shows numerous paths.

Since I'm adding this to dev_dependencies, I don't think this plugin should even be being added to GeneratedPluginRegistrant.

I have to remove this library from dev_dependencies before I can build my app.

@lukehutch This may sound dumb, but try restarting your computer. This fixed it for me.

@iwontknow Oh.. I've had the same thing, and as you say, reboot pc and flutter clean -> flutter pub get so it goes well... It's ironic
