Annotation class abstract final

An annotation that can be associated with a declaration.

For example

@override

or

@Deprecated('1.3.2')

metadata ::= annotation*

annotation ::= '@' metadatum

metadatum ::= Identifier | qualifiedName | constructorDesignation argumentPart

Implemented types

Properties

arguments → ArgumentList?

no setterinherited
childEntities → Iterable<SyntacticEntity>
An iterator that can be used to iterate through all the entities (either AST nodes or tokens) that make up the contents of this node, including doc comments but excluding other comments.
no setterinherited
constructorName → SimpleIdentifier?
The name of the constructor being invoked, or null if this annotation isn't the invocation of a named constructor.
no setter
element → Element?
The element associated with this annotation, or null if the AST structure hasn't been resolved or if this annotation couldn't be resolved.
no setter
element2 → Element2?
The element associated with this annotation.
no setter
elementAnnotation → ElementAnnotation?
The element annotation representing this annotation in the element model, or null if the AST hasn't been resolved.
no setter
end → int
The offset of the character immediately following the last character of this node's source range.
no setterinherited
endToken → Token
The last token included in this node's source range.
no setterinherited
hashCode → int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
isSynthetic → bool
Whether this node is a synthetic node.
no setterinherited
length → int
Return the number of characters in the syntactic entity's source range.
no setterinherited
name → Identifier
The name of either the class defining the constructor that is being invoked or the field that is being referenced.
no setter
offset → int
Return the offset from the beginning of the file to the first character in the syntactic entity.
no setterinherited
parent → AstNode
Returns this node's parent node, or null if this node is the root of an AST structure.
no setteroverride
period → Token?
The period before the constructor name, or null if this annotation isn't the invocation of a named constructor.
no setter
root → AstNode
The node at the root of this node's AST structure.
no setterinherited
runtimeType → Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
typeArguments → TypeArgumentList?
The type arguments to the constructor being invoked, or null if either this annotation isn't the invocation of a constructor or this annotation doesn't specify type arguments explicitly.
no setter

Methods

accept<E>(AstVisitor<E> visitor) → E?
Use the given visitor to visit this node.
inherited
findPrevious(Token target) → Token?
Returns the token before target, or null if it can't be found.
inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
thisOrAncestorMatching<E extends AstNode>(bool predicate(AstNode)) → E?
Returns either this node or the most immediate ancestor of this node for which the predicate returns true, or null if there's no such node.
inherited
thisOrAncestorOfType<E extends AstNode>() → E?
Returns either this node or the most immediate ancestor of this node that has the given type, or null if there's no such node.
inherited
toSource() → String
Returns a textual description of this node in a form approximating valid source.
inherited
toString() → String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
visitChildren(AstVisitor visitor) → void
