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() {
  var str = '';

  if (type != null) {
    str = variableTypeToString(type!) + ' ';
  }

  if (name != null) {
    str += name!;
  }

  if (isRequired && str != '') {
    str = 'required ' + str;
  }

  return str;
}
