Retrieving string from List

I am using a third party library to show dates on a custom calendar.

I need to retrieve some information when the user clicks on a day.

This is the code for onDayClick method:

 public void onDayClick(Date dateClicked) {
                List<Event> events = compactCalendarView.getEvents(dateClicked);
                Log.d(TAG, "Day was clicked: " + dateClicked + " with events " + events);


            }

And this is the output from the log for this method:

Day was clicked: Wed Mar 13 00:00:00 GMT+01:00 2019 with events [Event{color=-16711936, timeInMillis=1552431600000, data=Some extra data that I want to store.}]

I would like to retrieve the field data from that string...

According CompactCalendarView library, data object type is Object. So, to retrieve that field, just iterate through event list, then access data field:

List<Event> events = compactCalendarView.getEvents(dateClicked);
for (Event event : events) {
    Object data = event.getData();
    // Access to other event properties
    int color = event.getColor();
    long timeInMillis = event.getTimeInMillis();
}
