Short Version: The custom web component example in the first link isn't working for me. Why not? I'm running this in Dartium.
Long Version:
I copied and pasted this Dart Web UI example from this tutorial into the Dart Editor and tried to run it. Nothing showed up on the page. I've used dart before but not with web components, so I noticed that one difference between this code and other code I've written is that there was no <script src="packages/browser/dart.js"></script>
, so I added that at the bottom. Now I got the error:
Internal error: Dart_Invoke: did not find top-level function 'main'.
I put a print
statement in the main()
function, and the text was printed before the error, which is strange. I guessed and tried adding main() {}
inside the <script>
tag that was in the custom component. That is, the script tag looked like:
<script type="application/dart">
import 'package:web_ui/web_ui.dart';
main() {print("in main in component");}
class CounterComponent extends WebComponent {
int count = 0;
void increment() { count++; }
}
</script>
Now that error goes away, and both print statements are printed, but nothing happens.
Here is the original tutorial code for your convenience:
