Add ShapeBorder hit test fast paths - #187962
Conversation
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Code Review
This pull request introduces a hitTest method to ShapeBorder and its subclasses to optimize hit testing by avoiding path creation, and updates ShapeDecoration.hitTest to delegate to this new method. Feedback points out that the textDirection != null assertion in BoxBorder.hitTest should be removed, as BoxBorder's outer path does not depend on text direction and this assertion would cause runtime failures in debug mode when hit testing without a text direction.

Excellent PR artifacts. 💯 😜 |

Generally LGTM. Thank you for the followup!
Should we optimize _CompoundBorder as well?

Can we add negative tests?
Also having two lists here seem pretty hard to maintain. Can you wrap subtest parameters into a tuple or a data class?

The list is not related to the other list, it is basically a collection of points + a collection of shapes, if I use a tuple it would be more limiting. Do you agree?

Good idea! That works, thank you!

At least one of the Google tests are failing because someone implements BoxBorder. That may be the case for the other classes that received hitTest methods too, I didn't look through all of them. Is there a way we can land this without a hard API breaking change?

I think I can make hitTest optional and then do something like return shape.hitTest?.(Offset.zero & size, position, textDirection: textDirection) ?? shape.getOuterPath(Offset.zero & size, textDirection: textDirection).contains(position); it is not pretty and not ideal, but will avoid being breaking. But you would loose the performance improvements in Google.

Update: Dart doesn’t support optional virtual methods and the alternatives would require runtime type checks + extensions (which Flutter style avoids). I don’t see a clean way to preserve polymorphic fast paths without breaking existing implements ShapeBorder/implements BoxBorder classes.
I guess now it is up to you again, shall we do a breaking change? Hopefully it is easy for you on the Google side. There shouldn't be much surprises. I can write the breaking guide/etc but you need to tell me if you want this change in first place.

There is exactly one use case of implements BoxBorder in Google's codebase and it seems to me that it can be replaced by extends BoxRender without any problems. I've started a full run and I'll come back with the result.
Also I've searched throught Github and the only place that BoxBorder is implemented is in the mix package, which I think will not be broken by new properties.

All tests have passed. I'll discuss with @justinmc to land the change.

Sequence to #108648 (4 year delay).
This adds a
bool hitTestthat makes code much faster by not usingpath. 4 years ago, the speed-up was 17%. Interaction happens less often than painting, but still seems like it is worth patching it up.
