toString method
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({
bool doubleQuotes = true,
bool encodeCharacterEntities = true,
String encodeCharacters = '&<>"\'',
}) {
final quotationMark = (doubleQuotes) ? '"' : '\'';
var value = this.value;
if (encodeCharacterEntities) {
value = HtmlCharacterEntities.encode(value, checkAmpsForEntities: true);
}
value = quotationMark + value + quotationMark;
return '$name=$value';
}
