channelBuffers property

The low level buffering and dispatch mechanism for messages sent by plugins on the engine side to their corresponding plugin code on the framework side.

This exposes the dart:ui.channelBuffers object. Bindings can override this getter to intercept calls to the ChannelBuffers mechanism (for example, for tests).

In production, direct access to this object should not be necessary. Messages are received and dispatched by the defaultBinaryMessenger. This object is primarily used to send mock messages in tests, via the ChannelBuffers.push method (simulating a plugin sending a message to the framework).

See also:

• PlatformDispatcher.sendPlatformMessage, which is used for sending messages to plugins from the framework (the opposite of channelBuffers).
• platformDispatcher, the PlatformDispatcher singleton.
