toString method

  1. @override
String toString()
override

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() {
  final String annotation = isNormalized ? '' : '; NOT NORMALIZED';
  if (minWidth == double.infinity && minHeight == double.infinity) {
    return 'BoxConstraints(biggest$annotation)';
  }
  if (minWidth == 0 && maxWidth == double.infinity &&
      minHeight == 0 && maxHeight == double.infinity) {
    return 'BoxConstraints(unconstrained$annotation)';
  }
  String describe(double min, double max, String dim) {
    if (min == max) {
      return '$dim=${min.toStringAsFixed(1)}';
    }
    return '${min.toStringAsFixed(1)}<=$dim<=${max.toStringAsFixed(1)}';
  }
  final String width = describe(minWidth, maxWidth, 'w');
  final String height = describe(minHeight, maxHeight, 'h');
  return 'BoxConstraints($width, $height$annotation)';
}
