Why pass in the type and not the annotation?

for Dart, check the line below.

baseUrl.here is only a placeholder in Dart (the enum above) that has to be a compile time constant

We will need to move this into a separate import, along with the import to 'dart:mirrors'. I can probably just do this when I update the transformer though.

@vicb please address @jakemac53 comment. We can't have mirrors. For any mirrors code we must be able to replace it with a different code which is mirror independent during transformers.

Can't we use the same stacktrace trick in Dart as well? We don' t need the mirrors at all then?

No problem, I'll work on it tomorrow morning and then I'll be off until Monday.

@jakemac53 What are your thoughts about stack traces vs mirrors/transformers for Dart ?

print(new Trace.current().frames.map((f) => f.uri).toList()); (Trace is from the pub package stack_trace) seems to work fine.

However I feel like mirrors/transformers could be more solid... (as it does not depend on the underlying browser)

It seems to me like the mirrors version would be less fragile?

quick question: what happens if you can not get a package:// url as of today (the component is located in one of your app folder), is this currently supported ?

Not sure exactly what you mean, but package: urls and relative urls should be supported. Are you talking about pointing to a file in say web from test?
