A class for concatenating strings efficiently.

Allows for the incremental building of a string using write*() methods. The strings are concatenated to a single string only when toString is called.

Implements

Constructors

StringBuffer([Object content = ""])

Creates the string buffer with an initial content.

Properties

hashCode int

Get a hash code for this object.

read-only, inherited
isEmpty bool

Returns whether the buffer is empty. This is a constant-time operation.

read-only
isNotEmpty bool

Returns whether the buffer is not empty. This is a constant-time operation.

read-only
length int

Returns the length of the content that has been accumulated so far. This is a constant-time operation.

read-only
runtimeType Type

A representation of the runtime type of the object.

read-only, inherited

Operators

operator ==(other) bool

The equality operator.

inherited

Methods

clear() → void

Clears the string buffer.

noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic

Invoked when a non-existent method or property is accessed.

inherited
toString() String

Returns the contents of buffer as a concatenated string.

write(Object obj) → void

Adds the contents of obj, converted to a string, to the buffer.

writeAll(Iterable objects, [String separator = ""]) → void

Iterates over the given objects and writes them in sequence.

writeCharCode(int charCode) → void

Adds the string representation of charCode to the buffer.

writeln([Object obj = ""]) → void

Converts obj to a String by invoking Object.toString and adds the result to this, followed by a newline.
