Could not find a generator for route RouteSettings("/route", null) in the _WidgetsAppState


I am using Flutter 3.3.7 Stable release and writing a simple application with everything working perfectly but I got errors on named routes...

Please note that I only need named routes with limited codes not direct class calling etc...

Well, my main.dart is as follows...

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
  // This widget is the root of your application.
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
        title: 'Run With',
        theme: ThemeData(
          primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
        ),
        navigatorKey: TopVariables.appNavigationKey,
        initialRoute: '/',
        routes: {
          '/': (context) => const Home(),
          '/SignIn': (context) => SignIn(),
          '/SignUp': (context) => SignUp(),
        },
    );
  }
}

and I am calling the route as...

                      GestureDetector(
                        onTap: () {
                          Navigator.pushReplacementNamed(context, "/SignUp");
                        },
                        child: Text(
                          "SignUp",
                        ),
                      )

But getting the below error...

======== Exception caught by gesture ===============================================================
The following assertion was thrown while handling a gesture:
Could not find a generator for route RouteSettings("/SignUp", null) in the _WidgetsAppState.

Make sure your root app widget has provided a way to generate 
this route.
Generators for routes are searched for in the following order:
 1. For the "/" route, the "home" property, if non-null, is used.
 2. Otherwise, the "routes" table is used, if it has an entry for the route.
 3. Otherwise, onGenerateRoute is called. It should return a non-null value for any valid route not handled by "home" and "routes".
 4. Finally if all else fails onUnknownRoute is called.
Unfortunately, onUnknownRoute was not set.
When the exception was thrown, this was the stack:

Solution

  • I simulate your behaviour and everything works as expected on Flutter 3.3.7

    My code example

    class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
      const MyApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
    
      @override
      State<MyApp> createState() => _MyAppState();
    }
    
    class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
      @override
      Widget build(BuildContext context) {
        return MaterialApp(
          title: 'Run With',
          theme: ThemeData(
            primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
          ),
          initialRoute: '/',
          routes: {
            '/': (context) => SafeArea(
              child: Scaffold(
                body: Center(child: Column(
                  mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
                  children: [
                    Text('Home'),
                    ElevatedButton(onPressed: () {
                      Navigator.pushReplacementNamed(context, "/SignUp");
                    }, child: Text('To SignUp'))
                  ],
                ),),
              ),
            ),
            '/SignIn': (context) => const SafeArea(child: Scaffold(body:Center(child: Text('SignIn'),))),
            '/SignUp': (context) => const SafeArea(child: Scaffold(body: Center(child: Text('SignUp'),))),
          },
        );
      }
    }
