Another exception was thrown: type 'RxList<dynamic>' is not a subtype of type 'List<Vehicle>' in type cast

Question

I want to implement search functionality from database but it shows type cast error

Another exception was thrown: type 'RxList<dynamic>' is not a subtype of type 'List<Vehicle>' in type cast
  

In my Vehicle_Controller class

final vehicleList = [].obs;

Future<void> getVehicles() async {
    List<Map<String, dynamic>> vehicleDetails = await DBHelper.query();
    vehicleList.assignAll(vehicleDetails.map((data) => Vehicle.fromJson(data)).toList());
  }

I want to implement search in my search class

final _vehicleController = Get.put(VehicleController());
List<Vehicle> _list;
List<Vehicle> _searchList = List();

void initState() {
super.initState();
_IsSearching = false;
    
_list = _vehicleController.vehicleList as List<Vehicle>; //type cast error 

_searchList = _list;

_searchQuery.addListener(() {
  if (_searchQuery.text.isEmpty) {
    setState(() {
      _IsSearching = false;
      _searchText = "";
      _buildSearchList();
    });
  } else {
    setState(() {
      _IsSearching = true;
      _searchText = _searchQuery.text;
      _buildSearchList();
    });
  }
});
}

Answer 1

you should use _vehicleController.vehicleList.value as vehicleList is -like the exception says- a RxList not a List

also update this line to be a <Vehicle>[].

final vehicleList = <Vehicle>[].obs;

this will make vehicleList of type RxList<Vehicle>
