We are upgrading Angular to use analyzer 5.4.0 but getting this exception when serving. Error happens in DDC and dart2js.

dart run build_runner serve --verbose
Building package executable... (8.3s)
Built build_runner:build_runner.
[INFO] Entrypoint:Generating build script...

Seems likely related to package:build_runner, so I'm tentatively transferring the issue there.

It looks like you changed some imports around, and are now importing more from the library that defines a Builder than you used to.

This error is telling you that while trying to compile the build script - which imports the library defining the Builder - there was an unsupported import.

@jakemac53 might still have a script that can help you track down the import causing the problem, but I would take a look at anything you changed in the transitive import set from the Builder.

Edit: More specifically it's the library that defines the BuilderFactory which has new transitive imports.

What @natebosch said, the utility I have to help find the import path is package:import_path. It is probably behind on analyzer versions so if you hit issues feel free to file one on the repo and I can update it.

found the issue. There is a reason why angular use TypeChecker.fromUrl instead of fromRuntime

thanks
