of static method

AnimatedListState of(
  1. BuildContext context
)

The state from the closest instance of this class that encloses the given context.

This method is typically used by AnimatedList item widgets that insert or remove items in response to user input.

If no AnimatedList surrounds the context given, then this function will assert in debug mode and throw an exception in release mode.

This method can be expensive (it walks the element tree).

This method does not create a dependency, and so will not cause rebuilding when the state changes.
