I have a checkbox in one place and i am sending the callback etc. up the widget tree to run a setState and run the function applyFilters().
The NeededChecked is also routed up to the checkbox-value.
What i am struggling to understand is why this works.
Specifically how the onPressed callback is able to set the value of the bool isNeededState to true/false?
Here is the code that is run. The only important part is the passing of the bool isNeededState to the neededCheked.
void neededFilterCalled(bool isNeededState) {
setState(() {
NeededChecked = isNeededState;
applyFilters();
});
}
And here is the checkbox widget:
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Checkbox(
value: isNeededChecked,
onChanged: neededFilterCalled,
);
}
Writing
onChanged: neededFilterCalled,
is shorthand for
onChanged: (value) => neededFilterCalled(value),
