Extracting data from a GRID that uses a CallbakDataProvider

Flow
1

Hi

I am trying to extract data from a GRIDPro component. I need to be able to extract the current items in the grid as they appear on the screen (honouring the current filters applied and sort order).

I found the following code example to do this but I have run into a problem because I am using a CallbackDataprovider.

        ListDataProvider<Type> lDataProvider = (ListDataProvider<Type>) grid.getDataProvider();
        int totalSize = lDataProvider.getItems().size();
        MLOGGER.info("Current size of grid with filters on = " + totalSize);
        DataCommunicator<Type> dataCommunicator = grid.getDataCommunicator();
        Stream<Type> stream = lDataProvider.fetch(new Query<>(
                0,
                totalSize,
                dataCommunicator.getBackEndSorting(),
                dataCommunicator.getInMemorySorting(),
                lDataProvider.getFilter()));
        List<Type> list = stream.collect(Collectors.toList());
        MLOGGER.info("Size of extracted list = " + list.size());

However I get the following class cast error at runtime.

java.lang.ClassCastException: com.vaadin.flow.data.provider.CallbackDataProvider cannot be cast to com.vaadin.flow.data.provider.ListDataProvider

Does anyone know a way around this? I am using Vaadin 14.4 at the moment and would like to stay on this LTS version.

Thanks, John
