Flutter ScrollCacheExtent ScrollView scrollCacheExtent introduced Flutter 3.41.0-0.0.pre stable 3.44 official documentation

💡 Result:

The scrollCacheExtent property and the accompanying ScrollCacheExtent class were introduced in Flutter to replace the legacy cacheExtent (double) and cacheExtentStyle (enum) properties [1][2]. This change was initiated as a breaking change to improve API clarity, type safety, and maintainability by encapsulating the cache value and its styling strategy into a single object [1][3]. The scrollCacheExtent property is available in scrolling widgets such as ScrollView, ListView, GridView, and PageView, as well as in their corresponding render objects like RenderViewportBase [1][4][5]. Key details regarding this change: - Deprecation: The old properties cacheExtent and cacheExtentStyle were deprecated starting with Flutter version 3.41.0-0.0.pre [6][4]. - Functionality: The new ScrollCacheExtent class allows developers to define the caching strategy explicitly using two factory constructors: - ScrollCacheExtent.pixels(double pixels): Defines the cache area in logical pixels [3]. - ScrollCacheExtent.viewport(double value): Defines the cache area as a multiplier of the viewport's main axis extent [3]. - Purpose: The cache area allows the framework to lay out and render items before they become visible, which helps ensure a smoother scrolling experience [7][3]. It is also used to implement implicit accessibility scrolling on platforms like iOS [7]. For migration, if you previously used cacheExtent, you should now use scrollCacheExtent with ScrollCacheExtent.pixels. If you used cacheExtent with CacheExtentStyle.viewport, you should switch to ScrollCacheExtent.viewport [1].

Raise the minimum Flutter SDK constraint.

packages/stac/pubspec.yaml declares Flutter >=1.17.0, but these parsers use ScrollCacheExtent, introduced in Flutter 3.41.0-0.0.pre. The stable-channel CI does not test the declared minimum. Raise the constraint or retain the legacy API.
