I noticed a getter by this name with the same implementation already exists in flutter_driver, with the same implementation as the initializer for this variable. This deletes the variable and instead exports the getter.
Note that technically this could be breaking, because this version is a mutable variable instead of just a getter. But, I think this was just a mistake.
This PR is step 12 in the journey to solve issue #136139 and make the
entire Flutter repo more readable.
Most of it involves implementing switch expressions, and there's also a
few other random things that I wanted to clean up a bit.
This pull request aims for improved readability, based on issue #146600.
```dart
// before
Set<Color> _distinctVisibleColors() {
final Set<Color> distinctVisibleColors = <Color>{};
if (top.style != BorderStyle.none) {
distinctVisibleColors.add(top.color);
}
if (right.style != BorderStyle.none) {
distinctVisibleColors.add(right.color);
}
if (bottom.style != BorderStyle.none) {
distinctVisibleColors.add(bottom.color);
}
if (left.style != BorderStyle.none) {
distinctVisibleColors.add(left.color);
}
return distinctVisibleColors;
}
// after
Set<Color> _distinctVisibleColors() {
return <Color>{
if (top.style != BorderStyle.none) top.color,
if (right.style != BorderStyle.none) right.color,
if (bottom.style != BorderStyle.none) bottom.color,
if (left.style != BorderStyle.none) left.color,
};
}
```
Most of the repo should be covered in this PR (aside from `flutter_tools/`, since there was a lot going on in there).
* Adds support for `flutter test --wasm`.
* The test compilation flow is a bit different now, so that it supports compilers other than DDC. Specifically, when we run a set of unit tests, we generate a "switchboard" main function that imports each unit test and runs the main function for a specific one based off of a value set by the JS bootstrapping code. This way, there is one compile step and the same compile output is invoked for each unit test file.
* Also, removes all references to `dart:html` from flutter/flutter.
* Adds CI steps for running the framework unit tests with dart2wasm+skwasm
* These steps are marked as `bringup: true`, so we don't know what kind of failures they will result in. Any failures they have will not block the tree at all yet while we're still in `bringup: true`. Once this PR is merged, I plan on looking at any failures and either fixing them or disabling them so we can get these CI steps running on presubmit.

This change enables Flutter to generate multiple Scenes to be rendered into separate FlutterViews from a single widget tree. Each Scene is described by a separate render tree, which are all associated with the single widget tree.
This PR implements the framework-side mechanisms to describe the content to be rendered into multiple views. Separate engine-side changes are necessary to provide these views to the framework and to draw the framework-generated Scene into them.
## Summary of changes
The details of this change are described in [flutter.dev/go/multiple-views](https://flutter.dev/go/multiple-views). Below is a high-level summary organized by layers.
### Rendering layer changes
* The `RendererBinding` no longer owns a single `renderView`. In fact, it doesn't OWN any `RenderView`s at all anymore. Instead, it offers an API (`addRenderView`/`removeRenderView`) to add and remove `RenderView`s that then will be MANAGED by the binding. The `RenderView` itself is now owned by a higher-level abstraction (e.g. the `RawView` Element of the widgets layer, see below), who is also in charge of adding it to the binding. When added, the binding will interact with the `RenderView` to produce a frame (e.g. by calling `compositeFrame` on it) and to perform hit tests for incoming pointer events. Multiple `RenderView`s can be added to the binding (typically one per `FlutterView`) to produce multiple Scenes.
* Instead of owning a single `pipelineOwner`, the `RendererBinding` now owns the root of the `PipelineOwner` tree (exposed as `rootPipelineOwner` on the binding). Each `PipelineOwner` in that tree (except for the root) typically manages its own render tree typically rooted in one of the `RenderView`s mentioned in the previous bullet. During frame production, the binding will instruct each `PipelineOwner` of that tree to flush layout, paint, semantics etc. A higher-level abstraction (e.g. the widgets layer, see below) is in charge of adding `PipelineOwner`s to this tree.
* Backwards compatibility: The old `renderView` and `pipelineOwner` properties of the `RendererBinding` are retained, but marked as deprecated. Care has been taken to keep their original behavior for the deprecation period, i.e. if you just call `runApp`, the render tree bootstrapped by this call is rooted in the deprecated `RendererBinding.renderView` and managed by the deprecated `RendererBinding.pipelineOwner`.
### Widgets layer changes
* The `WidgetsBinding` no longer attaches the widget tree to an existing render tree. Instead, it bootstraps a stand-alone widget tree that is not backed by a render tree. For this, `RenderObjectToWidgetAdapter` has been replaced by `RootWidget`.
* Multiple render trees can be bootstrapped and attached to the widget tree with the help of the `View` widget, which internally is backed by a `RawView` widget. Configured with a `FlutterView` to render into, the `RawView` creates a new `PipelineOwner` and a new `RenderView` for the new render tree. It adds the new `RenderView` to the `RendererBinding` and its `PipelineOwner` to the pipeline owner tree.
* The `View` widget can only appear in certain well-defined locations in the widget tree since it bootstraps a new render tree and does not insert a `RenderObject` into an ancestor. However, almost all Elements expect that their children insert `RenderObject`s, otherwise they will not function properly. To produce a good error message when the `View` widget is used in an illegal location, the `debugMustInsertRenderObjectIntoSlot` method has been added to Element, where a child can ask whether a given slot must insert a RenderObject into its ancestor or not. In practice, the `View` widget can be used as a child of the `RootWidget`, inside the `view` slot of the `ViewAnchor` (see below) and inside a `ViewCollection` (see below). In those locations, the `View` widget may be wrapped in other non-RenderObjectWidgets (e.g. InheritedWidgets).
* The new `ViewAnchor` can be used to create a side-view inside a parent `View`. The `child` of the `ViewAnchor` widget renders into the parent `View` as usual, but the `view` slot can take on another `View` widget, which has access to all inherited widgets above the `ViewAnchor`. Metaphorically speaking, the view is anchored to the location of the `ViewAnchor` in the widget tree.
* The new `ViewCollection` widget allows for multiple sibling views as it takes a list of `View`s as children. It can be used in all the places that accept a `View` widget.
## Google3
As of July 5, 2023 this change passed a TAP global presubmit (TGP) in google3: tap/OCL:544707016:BASE:545809771:1688597935864:e43dd651
## Note to reviewers
This change is big (sorry). I suggest focusing the initial review on the changes inside of `packages/flutter` first. The majority of the changes describe above are implemented in (listed in suggested review order):
* `rendering/binding.dart`
* `widgets/binding.dart`
* `widgets/view.dart`
* `widgets/framework.dart`
All other changes included in the PR are basically the fallout of what's implemented in those files. Also note that a lot of the lines added in this PR are documentation and tests.
I am also very happy to walk reviewers through the code in person or via video call, if that is helpful.
I appreciate any feedback.
