tryToString function

String? tryToString(dynamic object, { Object? mapKey, int? listIndex, String? defaultValue, })

Converts any object to a string, or returns null if the object is null. mirroring the same static method in the ConvertObject, providing alternative easy less code usage options.

• Converts various object types to their string representation.
• If the conversion to string fails, logs an error and returns null.

object The object to be converted to a string. mapKey (Optional) Specifies the key to extract values from a Map object. listIndex (Optional) Specifies the index to extract elements from a List object.

Example usage:

final object1 = 'Hello';
final string1 = tryToString(object1); // 'Hello'

final object2 = 10;
final string2 = tryToString(object2); // '10'

final object3 = true;
final string3 = tryToString(object3); // 'true'

final object4 = null;
final string4 = tryToString(object4); // null

Implementation

String? tryToString(
  dynamic object, {
  Object? mapKey,
  int? listIndex,
  String? defaultValue,
}) =>
    ConvertObject.tryToString(
      object,
      mapKey: mapKey,
      listIndex: listIndex,
      defaultValue: defaultValue,
    );
