Default stringify for objects, equivalent to Java's toString?


If you have something like this:

class MyClass {    String data;    MyClass(this.data);    @override    String toString() {        return data;    }}MyClass myObject = new MyClass("someData");print(myObject); // outputs "someData", not 'Instance of MyClass'

I think this might be what you are looking for.


Yes it works like this for print, String interpolation or Angular mustaches.

By overriding the String toString() method on your object the displayed value will be the result of this toString() call. If there's no toString() defined in the class hierarchy the toString() of Object will be called (which will return Instance of 'MyClass' for class MyClass{}).
