Description
Steps to reproduce
With the following code, when item with label test is selected the item with label my test is selected instead, Although the object has different uuid. if I select bla or test 1 then it works as expected.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() {
runApp(MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Custom Dropdown Menu',
home: DropdownMenuExample(),
);
}
}
class DropdownMenuExample extends StatefulWidget {
@override
_DropdownMenuExampleState createState() => _DropdownMenuExampleState();
}
class _DropdownMenuExampleState extends State<DropdownMenuExample> {
MyObject? selectedValue;
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
List<MyObject> items = [
MyObject(
name: 'my test',
uuid: '3fa85f64-5617-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6',
),
MyObject(
name: "bla",
uuid: "4fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6",
),
MyObject(
name: "test",
uuid: "3fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f68afa6",
),
MyObject(
name: "test 2",
uuid: "3fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6",
),
];
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text('Custom Dropdown Menu'),
),
body: Center(
child: DropdownMenu<MyObject>(
initialSelection: selectedValue,
onSelected: (MyObject? newValue) {
setState(() {
selectedValue = newValue;
});
},
dropdownMenuEntries: items.map<DropdownMenuEntry<MyObject>>((MyObject scope) {
return DropdownMenuEntry<MyObject>(
value: scope,
label: scope.name,
);
}).toList(),
),
),
);
}
}
class MyObject {
final String name;
final String uuid;
MyObject({
required this.name,
required this.uuid,
});
