ConnectionState enum

The state of connection to an asynchronous computation.

The usual flow of state is as follows:

  1. none, maybe with some initial data.
  2. waiting, indicating that the asynchronous operation has begun, typically with the data being null.
  3. active, with data being non-null, and possible changing over time.
  4. done, with data being non-null.

  • AsyncSnapshot, which augments a connection state with information received from the asynchronous computation.

Values

none → const ConnectionState

Not currently connected to any asynchronous computation.

For example, a FutureBuilder whose FutureBuilder.future is null.

waiting → const ConnectionState

Connected to an asynchronous computation and awaiting interaction.

active → const ConnectionState

Connected to an active asynchronous computation.

For example, a Stream that has returned at least one value, but is not yet done.

done → const ConnectionState

Connected to a terminated asynchronous computation.
