popDisposition property
Returns whether calling Navigator.maybePop when this Route is current (isCurrent) should do anything.
Navigator.maybePop is usually used instead of Navigator.pop to handle the system back button, when it hasn't been disabled via SystemNavigator.setFrameworkHandlesBack.
By default, if a Route is the first route in the history (i.e., if isFirst), it reports that pops should be bubbled (RoutePopDisposition.bubble). This behavior prevents the user from popping the first route off the history and being stranded at a blank screen; instead, the larger scope is popped (e.g. the application quits, so that the user returns to the previous application).
In other cases, the default behavior is to accept the pop (RoutePopDisposition.pop).
The third possible value is RoutePopDisposition.doNotPop, which causes the pop request to be ignored entirely.
See also:
- Form, which provides a Form.canPop boolean that is similar.
- PopScope, a widget that provides a way to intercept the back button.
Implementation
RoutePopDisposition get popDisposition {
return isFirst ? RoutePopDisposition.bubble : RoutePopDisposition.pop;
}
