Flutter- wrapping text

In a project of mine I wrap Text instances around Containers. This particular code sample features two stacked Text objects.

Here's a code sample.

    //80% of screen width
    double c_width = MediaQuery.of(context).size.width*0.8;

    return new Container (
      padding: const EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
      width: c_width,
      child: new Column (
        children: <Widget>[
          new Text ("Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 Long text 1 ", textAlign: TextAlign.left),
          new Text ("Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2, Long Text 2", textAlign: TextAlign.left),
        ],
      ),
    );

[edit] Added a width constraint to the container

Use Expanded

 Expanded(
            child: new Column(
              crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
              children: <Widget>[
                new Text(_name, style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.subhead),
                new Container(
                  margin: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 5.0),
                  child: new Text(text),
                ),
              ],
            ),

The Flexible does the trick

new Container(
       child: Row(
         children: <Widget>[
            Flexible(
               child: new Text("A looooooooooooooooooong text"))
                ],
        ));

This is the official doc https://flutter.dev/docs/development/ui/layout#lay-out-multiple-widgets-vertically-and-horizontally on how to arrange widgets.

Remember that Flexible and also Expanded, should only be used within a Column, Row or Flex, because of the Incorrect use of ParentDataWidget.

The solution is not the mere Flexible
