`flutter doctor -v` cannot determine versions of Flutter and Dart intellij plugins (MacOS)

[Sameri11]

Steps to reproduce

1. Make sure Flutter and/or Dart plugins installed in Android Studio
2. Run flutter doctor -v

Tested on these versions of Android Studio:

• 2024.1.2
• 2024.2.1 (preview)
• 2024.2.2 (preview)

Expected results

I expect output of flutter doctor -v to show version of Dart and Flutter plugins installed in Android Studio. Expected output:

[✓] Android Studio (version 2024.1)
    • Android Studio at /Users/samer/Applications/Android Studio Koala Feature Drop 2024.1.2.app/Contents
    • Flutter plugin version 81.0.2
    • Dart plugin version 241.18808
    • Java version OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 17.0.11+0-17.0.11b1207.24-11852314)

Actual results

doctor can not determine versions of Dart and Flutter plugins. Actual output :

[✓] Android Studio (version 2024.1)
    • Android Studio at /Users/samer/Applications/Android Studio Koala Feature Drop 2024.1.2.app/Contents

Closing this as a duplicate of flutter/flutter#121925

[Sameri11]

@danagbemava-nc hi and thanks for your attention! Can you please elaborate, in which way this duplicates flutter/flutter#121925 ? From what I can see, in flutter/flutter#121925 bug is related to Android Studio version itself, not plugin versions, isn't it? As you can see in my actual output, Android Studio version determined correctly (and it's not even Preview version).

@Sameri11 My apologies, this is what I saw in the doctor output that led me to the other issue

I do see a similar output from my flutter doctor -v although I just installed in the plugins. For IntelliJ, the plugins are read properly on my system.

I think modern Android Studio changed path where plugins contained an Application Support, in this code: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/c4c9f47c479da3786bb5d42e127597d6508fab50/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/android/android_studio.dart#L75-L84

In this code,presetPluginsPath will be resolved to /Users/user/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio2024.1 in my environment, but plugins are in plugins dir inside this path. So, maybe it would be enough to add plugins here to path.

Another case is with Preview versions of studio – it doesn't have idea.paths.selector in Info.plist needed here, so fallback to this code:
https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/c4c9f47c479da3786bb5d42e127597d6508fab50/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/android/android_studio.dart#L185-L195

I guess this code also needs plugins to be added to path, but also here should be possible to lookup not only AndroidStudio$major.$minor dir, but also AndroidStudioPreview$major.$minor – preview versions have this path format now.

UPD: also, as @danagbemava-nc said that plugins in IntelliJ displayed correctly, intellij_validator has plugins in it's path: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/master/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/intellij/intellij_validator.dart#L559

[AlexV525]

@reidbaker Why the issue belongs to the intellij repo? Shouldn't it be a flutter_tool issue?

[Sameri11]

Wow even I forgot about this issue :) If you ask me, it's indeed a flutter_tool issue thought. And also there is flutter/flutter#163214 connected to this, and there's even PR to fix, so maybe this one should be closed in favour of flutter/flutter#163214 ?

[AlexV525]

Yep. That looks correct. Thanks @Sameri11
