Why Flutter SfDataGrid sorting just renders sorted rows and no changes in datasource? - flutter

Question

Im trying to use build-in sorting in my SfDataGrid. It works fine and flutter rerenders and show me sorted table, but when im trying to get cell value in table its bring me past(not sorted) value of cell.
So I want to not only render the sorted list but also sort the data source as well.

You can get the sorted row collection from the DataGridSource.effectiveRows property. It holds the sorted collection if the sorting is applied in DataGrid.

const MyHomePage({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
#override
MyHomePageState createState() => MyHomePageState();
}
class MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
List<Employee> _employees = <Employee>[];
late EmployeeDataSource _employeeDataSource;
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
_employees = _getEmployeeData();
_employeeDataSource = EmployeeDataSource(employeeData: _employees);
