[Question] support annotated types in records

[d-markey]

Hello,

I'm using build_runner: ^2.4.8 on Dart 3.3.4 (stable) from Flutter 3.19.6.

I've developed a builder and would like to use annotations on types in records, eg:

(int, @CustomSerializer() CustomType) myMethod(...) { ... }

The syntax is accepted by Dart and the program compiles, however I found no way to access the @CustomSerializer() annotation for CustomType in my builder, presumably because the method element carries a resolved DartType in returnType. I can inspect the types that are part of the record, but can't navigate to the location in the AST that defined that record type.

Is there a way to achieve this, or is it considered at all?

This sounds to me like an analyzer question - transferred the issue to the SDK
