DragSelectableProvider class

State management provider for drag-selectable list functionality.

This provider manages all aspects of drag selection state including:

  • Current selection state for all list items
  • Drag selection mode activation and deactivation
  • Scroll controller for the associated ListView
  • Initial selection state for range selection operations

Architecture

The provider extends ChangeNotifier to integrate with Flutter's state management system and uses the Provider package for dependency injection. It's designed to work with DragSelectableListView but can be used independently for custom implementations.

Selection Model

The provider maintains two key selection states:

  1. Current Selection (_selected): Real-time selection state of all items
  2. Initial Selection (initialSelected): Baseline state when drag starts

Range selection operations toggle items relative to the initial state, allowing intuitive multi-selection regardless of prior selection states.
