toString method

  1. @override
String toString()
override

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 hashAlgorithm = this.hashAlgorithm;
  if (hashAlgorithm is Sha256) {
    return '$runtimeType.sha256()';
  }
  if (hashAlgorithm is Sha512) {
    return '$runtimeType.sha512()';
  }
  return '$runtimeType($hashAlgorithm)';
}
