"buildNumber" is incorrect #37320

Description

@b0bh00d

I have the following code in my Flutter project:

PackageInfo.fromPlatform().then((PackageInfo packageInfo) { appName = packageInfo.appName; packageName = packageInfo.packageName; version = packageInfo.version; buildNumber = packageInfo.buildNumber; });

The version and buildNumber values are being set directly in the pubspec.yaml file as:

version: 2020.0+3131

But the Flutter code is returning "4131" for the buildNumber instead of "3131". I have also tried passing these values on the command line instead of manually modifying pubspec.yaml (using "--build-name" and "--build-number") with the same result.

I'm using version 0.4.0+6 of package_info.

    Can you paste your pubspec.yaml and flutter doctor -v?

    description:

    The following defines the version and build number for your application.

    A version number is three numbers separated by dots, like 1.2.43

    followed by an optional build number separated by a +.

    Both the version and the builder number may be overridden in flutter

    build by specifying --build-name and --build-number, respectively.

    In Android, build-name is used as versionName while build-number used as versionCode.

    Read more about Android versioning at https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/versioning

    In iOS, build-name is used as CFBundleShortVersionString while build-number used as CFBundleVersion.

    following page: https://www.dartlang.org/tools/pub/pubspec

    The following section is specific to Flutter.

    flutter:

    The following line ensures that the Material Icons font is

    included with your application, so that you can use the icons in

    the material Icons class.

    uses-material-design: true

    To add assets to your application, add an assets section, like this:

    assets:
    - assets/images/
    #- assets/certs/
    - assets/sounds/

    An image asset can refer to one or more resolution-specific "variants", see

    https://flutter.dev/assets-and-images/#resolution-aware.

    For details regarding adding assets from package dependencies, see

    https://flutter.dev/assets-and-images/#from-packages

    To add custom fonts to your application, add a fonts section here,

    in this "flutter" section. Each entry in this list should have a

    "family" key with the font family name, and a "fonts" key with a

    list giving the asset and other descriptors for the font. For

    example:

    fonts:

    - family: Schyler

    fonts:

    - asset: fonts/Schyler-Regular.ttf

    - asset: fonts/Schyler-Italic.ttf

    style: italic

    - family: Trajan Pro

    fonts:

    - asset: fonts/TrajanPro.ttf

    - asset: fonts/TrajanPro_Bold.ttf

    weight: 700

    Additional observations:

    This seems to only happen only with a "release" build. In Android Studio/Emulator, it correctly reports "3131" with the debug build. From the command line, building directly using Flutter in "release" and running the "app-beta-armeabi-v7a-release.apk" file on a phone displays "4131".

    Ok, this may not be package_info at fault. Installing on the phone displays "2020.0-beta(4131)" in the dialog prompting for permission to install the APK. I'm guessing the information displayed in this dialog would not be coming from the Flutter (package_info) code itself, but from some Android-specific configuration files compiled with it.

    This may be Flutter (or gradle) at fault.

    I'm going to assume that this is some other system at fault--Flutter, gradle, or the Android version on the phone I'm testing with (6.0.1). If I have better evidence that package_info is involved, I'll re-open.

    Sorry for the bother.
