Sorting table view

Postby jdbruijn » Fri Oct 04, 2013 4:58 pm

I want to sort my table view by 2 columns: first by foundset.task_to_call.main_group and then by foundset.task_to_call.sub_group.
How can I do this in the sortfunction?

sort("task_to_call.main_group asc, task_to_call.sub_group asc")

Unless I'm not understanding your question....

Code example for a form's onSort event/command:

Code: Select all
/**
* Perform sort.
*
* @param {String} dataProviderID element data provider
* @param {Boolean} asc sort ascending [true] or descending [false]
* @param {JSEvent} event the event that triggered the action
*
* @properties={typeid:24,uuid:"CEC04198-198A-4D7A-8383-505C8D08141E"}
*/
function SORT(dataProviderID, asc, event) {
   if (dataProviderID == 'task_to_call.main_group' || dataProviderID ==
'task_to_call.sub_group') {
      controller.sort('task_to_call.main_group' + (asc ? ' asc' : ' desc') + '
task_to_call.sub_group' + (asc ? ' asc' : ' desc'), false)
   }
   else {
      controller.sort(dataProviderID + (asc ? ' asc' : ' desc'), false)
   }
}

my question is about sorting on the mobile client. There you can only sort using:
Code: Select all
foundset.sort(sortFunction)

I was wondering if I can sort using multiple columns using this method.

in the function that you give you can do anything you want, you only need to return a -1 (smaller ), 0 (equals) , 1 (greater )
of the 2 records that you get in that sort function, see the doc of the sort by function
