Description

:firebase_auth:compileDebugKotlin fails on Kotlin 2.4 when IdTokenChannelStreamHandler infers the IdTokenListener parameter type. com.google.firebase:firebase-auth class files reference @UnknownInitialization but do not declare org.checkerframework:checker-qual, so the inferred type is inaccessible.

Giving the SAM lambda an explicit FirebaseAuth parameter type is enough — Kotlin no longer infers the annotated type. Confirmed on Kotlin 2.4.10 with no checker-qual on the classpath.

The auth example is bumped to Gradle 8.14, AGP 8.11.1, and Kotlin 2.4.10 so CI compiles the language version that turns this from a 2.3 warning into an error.

Upstream packaging issue: firebase/firebase-android-sdk#8557

Checklist

  • I read the Contributor Guide and followed the process outlined there for submitting PRs.
  • My PR includes unit or integration tests for all changed/updated/fixed behaviors (See Contributor Guide).
  • All existing and new tests are passing.
  • I updated/added relevant documentation (doc comments with ///).
  • The analyzer (melos run analyze) does not report any problems on my PR.
  • I read and followed the Flutter Style Guide.
  • I signed the CLA.
  • I am willing to follow-up on review comments in a timely manner.

This is a Gradle/Kotlin compile fix; there is no Dart behavior change to cover with an integration test. The example toolchain bump makes e2e-auth Android compile with Kotlin 2.4.

Breaking Change

  • Yes, this is a breaking change.
  • No, this is not a breaking change.

Test plan

  • :firebase_auth:compileDebugKotlin fails on Kotlin 2.4.10 without the explicit type
  • Same task succeeds on Kotlin 2.4.10 with { auth: FirebaseAuth -> } and no checker-qual
  • Auth Android e2e / example APK still builds on CI

…r-qual

firebase-auth class files reference @UnknownInitialization but do not
declare checker-qual. Kotlin 2.4 fails when inferring SAM parameter
types against that annotation (IdTokenListener).

The compile failure is only on inferred SAM parameter types. An explicit
FirebaseAuth type is enough; checker-qual is not needed. Bump the auth
example to Gradle 8.14, AGP 8.11.1, and Kotlin 2.4.10 so CI compiles
the language version that turns the warning into an error.
