onValueChanged property

The callback that is called when a new option is tapped.

This attribute must not be null.

The segmented control passes the newly selected widget's associated key to the callback but does not actually change state until the parent widget rebuilds the segmented control with the new groupValue.

The callback provided to onValueChanged should update the state of the parent StatefulWidget using the State.setState method, so that the parent gets rebuilt; for example:

{@tool snippet}

class SegmentedControlExample extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  State createState() => SegmentedControlExampleState();
}

class SegmentedControlExampleState extends State<SegmentedControlExample> {
  final Map<int, Widget> children = const {
    0: Text('Child 1'),
    1: Text('Child 2'),
  };

  int currentValue;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Container(
      child: CupertinoSlidingSegmentedControl<int>(
        children: children,
        onValueChanged: (int newValue) {
          setState(() {
            currentValue = newValue;
          });
        },
        groupValue: currentValue,
      ),
    );
  }
}

{@end-tool}
