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 contents = [
    'year=$year',
    'month=$month',
    'day=$day',
    'hours=$hours',
    'minutes=$minutes',
    'seconds=$seconds',
    'nanos=$nanos',
  ].join(',');
  return 'DateTime($contents)';
}
