inherited
dependOnInheritedElement(InheritedElement ancestor, {Object? aspect}) → InheritedWidget
Registers this build context with ancestor such that when ancestor's widget changes this build context is rebuilt.
inherited
dependOnInheritedWidgetOfExactType<T extends InheritedWidget>({Object? aspect}) → T?
Returns the nearest widget of the given type T and creates a dependency on it, or null if no appropriate widget is found.
inherited
describeElement(String name, {DiagnosticsTreeStyle style = DiagnosticsTreeStyle.errorProperty}) → DiagnosticsNode
Returns a description of the Element associated with the current build context.
inherited
describeMissingAncestor({required Type expectedAncestorType}) → List<DiagnosticsNode>
Adds a description of a specific type of widget missing from the current build context's ancestry tree.
inherited
describeOwnershipChain(String name) → DiagnosticsNode
Adds a description of the ownership chain from a specific Element to the error report.

describeWidget(String name, {DiagnosticsTreeStyle style = DiagnosticsTreeStyle.errorProperty}) → DiagnosticsNode
Returns a description of the Widget associated with the current build context.
inherited
detachRenderObject() → void
Remove renderObject from the render tree.
inherited
didChangeDependencies() → void
Called when a dependency of this element changes.
inherited
dispatchNotification(Notification notification) → void
Start bubbling this notification at the given build context.
inherited
doesDependOnInheritedElement(InheritedElement ancestor) → bool

inherited
findAncestorWidgetOfExactType<T extends Widget>() → T?
Returns the nearest ancestor widget of the given type T, which must be the type of a concrete Widget subclass.
inherited
findRenderObject() → RenderObject?
The current RenderObject for the widget. If the widget is a RenderObjectWidget, this is the render object that the widget created for itself. Otherwise, it is the render object of the first descendant RenderObjectWidget.

Obtains the element corresponding to the nearest widget of the given type T, which must be the type of a concrete InheritedWidget subclass.
inherited
getInheritedWidgetOfExactType<T extends InheritedWidget>() → T?

inherited
markNeedsBuild() → void

inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.

inherited
reassemble() → void

inherited
toString({DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.info}) → String
A string representation of this object.

visitAncestorElements(ConditionalElementVisitor visitor) → void
Walks the ancestor chain, starting with the parent of this build context's widget, invoking the argument for each ancestor.
