RenderObjectToWidgetElement<T extends RenderObject> class

The root of an element tree that is hosted by a RenderObject.

This element class is the instantiation of a RenderObjectToWidgetAdapter widget. It can be used only as the root of an Element tree (it cannot be mounted into another Element; it's parent must be null).

In typical usage, it will be instantiated for a RenderObjectToWidgetAdapter whose container is the RenderView.
