Dart: Use regexp to remove whitespaces from string

I couldn't believe that it was so complex to simply remove whitespaces from a string. So I came up with this solution, which I like much more than playing with regex:

myString.split(" ").join("");

print("test test1 test2".replaceAll(new RegExp(r"\s+\b|\b\s"), ""));

(without /ig) worked for me. These options are not supported in Dart this way.

• /g is equivalent to All in replaceAll
• /i is equivalent to new RegExp(r"...", caseSensitive: false)

I think this covers more bases: textWithWhitespace.replaceAll(new RegExp(r"\s+\b|\b\s|\s|\b"), "")

The current accepted answer was not working for me. In the case where it was all whitespace, my whitespace was not removed

String whitespace = "    ";
print(whitespace.replaceAll(new RegExp(r"\s\b|\b\s"), "").length);
//length is 4 here

This works fine even without using RegExp:

myString.replaceAll(" ", "");
