AbstractLayoutBuilder<LayoutInfoType> class abstract

An abstract superclass for widgets that defer their building until layout.

Similar to the Builder widget except that the implementation calls the builder function at layout time and provides the LayoutInfoType that is required to configure the child widget subtree.

This is useful when the child widget tree relies on information that are only available during layout, and doesn't depend on the child's intrinsic size.

The LayoutInfoType should typically be immutable. The equality of the LayoutInfoType type is used by the implementation to avoid unnecessary rebuilds: if the new LayoutInfoType computed during layout is the same as (defined by LayoutInfoType.==) the previous LayoutInfoType, the implementation will try to avoid calling the builder again unless updateShouldRebuild returns true. The corresponding RenderObject produced by this widget retains the most up-to-date LayoutInfoType for this purpose, which may keep a LayoutInfoType object in memory until the widget is removed from the tree.

Subclasses must return a RenderObject that mixes in RenderAbstractLayoutBuilderMixin.

Methods

createElement() RenderObjectElement
RenderObjectWidgets always inflate to a RenderObjectElement subclass.
override
createRenderObject(BuildContext context) RenderAbstractLayoutBuilderMixin<LayoutInfoType, RenderObject>
Creates an instance of the RenderObject class that this RenderObjectWidget represents, using the configuration described by this RenderObjectWidget.
override
debugDescribeChildren() List<DiagnosticsNode>
Returns a list of DiagnosticsNode objects describing this node's children.
inherited
debugFillProperties(DiagnosticPropertiesBuilder properties) → void
Add additional properties associated with the node.
inherited
didUnmountRenderObject(covariant RenderObject renderObject) → void
A render object previously associated with this widget has been removed from the tree. The given RenderObject will be of the same type as returned by this object's createRenderObject.
inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
toDiagnosticsNode({String? name, DiagnosticsTreeStyle? style}) DiagnosticsNode
Returns a debug representation of the object that is used by debugging tools and by DiagnosticsNode.toStringDeep.
inherited
toString({DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.info}) String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
toStringDeep({String prefixLineOne = '', String? prefixOtherLines, DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.debug, int wrapWidth = 65}) String
Returns a string representation of this node and its descendants.
inherited
toStringShallow({String joiner = ', ', DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.debug}) String
Returns a one-line detailed description of the object.
inherited
toStringShort() String
A short, textual description of this widget.
inherited
updateRenderObject(BuildContext context, covariant RenderObject renderObject) → void
Copies the configuration described by this RenderObjectWidget to the given RenderObject, which will be of the same type as returned by this object's createRenderObject.
inherited
updateShouldRebuild(covariant AbstractLayoutBuilder<LayoutInfoType> oldWidget) bool
Whether builder needs to be called again even if the layout constraints are the same.

Operators

operator ==(Object other) bool
The equality operator.
