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() {
  final name = runtimeType.toString().replaceAll('View', '');
  if (children.isNotEmpty) {
    return '$name(${children.join(', ')})';
  }
  if (length > 0) {
    return '$name[$length]';
  }
  return name + (breakAfter != 0 ? '#' : '');
}
