describeMatch abstract method
- Plurality plurality
Describes zero, one, or more candidates that match the requirements of a finder.
The description returned should be a brief English phrase describing a matching candidate with the proper plural form. As an example for a string finder that is looking for strings starting with "hello":
String describeMatch(Plurality plurality) {
return switch (plurality) {
Plurality.zero || Plurality.many => 'strings starting with "hello"',
Plurality.one => 'string starting with "hello"',
};
}
This will be used both to describe a finder and the results of searching with that finder.

- FinderBase.toString where this is used to fully describe the finder
- FinderResult.toString where this is used to provide context to the results of a search
