I'm using DeferredComponent in my Flutter project. The app run successfully in debug and release mode. However, when I try to make an appbundle, the Deferred Components validation fails with the following error.
ERROR LOG
=================================================================================
Deferred components prebuild validation
=================================================================================
Modified android files:
- salt_coding_challenge\build\android_deferred_components_setup_files\app\src\main\res\values\strings.xml
The above files have been placed into `build/android_deferred_components_setup_files`,
a temporary directory. The files should be reviewed and moved into the project's
`android` directory.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Setup verification can be skipped by passing the `--no-validate-deferred-components`
flag, however, doing so may put your app at risk of not functioning even if the
build is successful.
=================================================================================
Setup for deferred components incomplete. See recommended actions.

What's causing this error? And how to prevent it?
Modified android files:
- salt_coding_challenge\build\android_deferred_components_setup_files\app\src\main\res\values\strings.xml
The above files have been placed into `build/android_deferred_components_setup_files`,
a temporary directory. The files should be reviewed and moved into the project's
`android` directory
Am I missing something when setting up my deferred component?
I finally found the answer. Basically, this error
Modified android files:
- salt_coding_challenge\build\android_deferred_components_setup_files\app\src\main\res\values\strings.xml
The above files have been placed into `build/android_deferred_components_setup_files`,
a temporary directory. The files should be reviewed and moved into the project's
`android` directory
indicates there is an error within the moved files. In my case the moved file is string.xml. In my case, I called the string resources in the AndroidManifest.xml. I called @string/defComponent meanwhile the resources named defComponentName in strings.xml.
