avoid-late-context

added in: 1.4.0
warning
Pro+

Warns when the context is used inside a late field.

Using the context in late fields might result in an unexpected behavior due to late fields being initialized lazily.

Example​

❌ Bad:

class _SomeState extends State<T> {
  // LINT: Avoid accessing 'context' in late field initializers. Try rewriting the initializer.
  late final _myState = _create(context);
}

✅ Good:

class _SomeState extends State<T> {
  late final _myState = _create();
}
