When you encounter the error message “future isn’t a type. try correcting the name to match an existing type,” it means that you have used an incorrect type or made a typo in your code.
To fix this error, you need to ensure that you are using the correct type in your code. Double-check the spelling and capitalization of the type you are referencing and correct it if necessary.
Here’s an example to illustrate this error:
var promise = new Future(); // Incorrect type name
promise.then(function(result) {
console.log(result);
});
// The correct type name is Promise, not Future
var promise = new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
resolve("Success");
});
promise.then(function(result) {
console.log(result); // Output: "Success"
});
In the example above, the incorrect type “Future” is used when creating a new promise. The correct type is “Promise,” and correcting it resolves the error.
