initState method

@protected @override @mustCallSuper void initState()

The framework will call this method exactly once. Only when the StateMVC object is first created.

Implementation

@protected
@override
@mustCallSuper
void initState() {
  assert(mounted, '${toString()} is not instantiated properly.');

  /// Override this method to perform initialization that depends on the
  /// location at which this object was inserted into the tree.
  /// (i.e. Subscribe to another object it depends on during [initState],
  /// unsubscribe object and subscribe to a new object when it changes in
  /// [didUpdateWidget], and then unsubscribe from the object in [dispose].
  super.initState();

  /// Registers the given object as a binding observer. Binding
  /// observers are notified when various application events occur,
  /// for example when the system locale changes. Generally, one
  /// widget in the widget tree registers itself as a binding
  /// observer, and converts the system state into inherited widgets.
  WidgetsBinding.instance!.addObserver(this);

  /// No 'setState()' functions are allowed to fully function at this point.
