toString method

@override String toString()

A string representation of this object.

Some classes have a default textual representation, often paired with a static parse function (like int.parse). These classes will provide the textual representation as their string representation.

Other classes have no meaningful textual representation that a program will care about. Such classes will typically override toString to provide useful information when inspecting the object, mainly for debugging or logging.

Implementation

@override
String toString() {
  var refs = referenceTables;

  var parentStr = parentTable != null ? 'parent: $parentTable' : null;
  var refsStr = refs.isNotEmpty ? 'refs: $refs' : null;

  return 'ALTER TABLE $table {${[
    if (parentStr != null) parentStr,
    if (refsStr != null) refsStr,
  ].join(', ')}}';
}
