toString method - Type class - dart:core library (original) (raw)

toString abstract method

String toString()

override

Returns a string which represents the underlying type.

The string is only intended for providing information to a reader while debugging. There is no guaranteed format, the string value returned for a Type instances is entirely implementation dependent.

The string should be consistent, so a Type object for the same type returns the same string throughout a program execution. The string may or may not contain parts corresponding to the source name of declaration of the type, if the type has a source name at all (some types reachable through dart:mirrors may not).
