How to change the list of events of dynamic type into my own type in calendar in flutter?

Question

I am using the table calendar for storing the events in the list. The default list is of List<dynamic> type but what I want is to store the events in another type list which is of List<EventStore> type. As I change the dynamic to EventStore type, everything goes well.
And I did it like this,
Map<DateTime, List<EventStore>> _events;

But when selecting particular date, it gives the error like,
type 'List<dynamic>' is not a subtype of type 'List<EventStore>'

For showing the list of events for the selected day, I have done this,

 onDaySelected: (date, events) {
                setState(() {
                  _selectedEvents = events;
                });
              },

whereas _selectedEvents is List<EventStore> type and events is List<dynamic> type.
How do I change it to EventStore type?
Have a look to this repo github repo

Solution

You can cast Lists in Dart like so:

List<dynamic> data = [1, 2, 3, 4]
List<int> dataAsInts = data.cast<int>();

For more information, have a look at the cast() method in the docs.

It is recommended to explicitely declare the type of object while declaration as far as possible. It minimizes run time errors related to object types.
