Table onSort Action

[Former Member]

How do you determine which column was clicked for sorting by the user?

The "onSort" event has a parameter named "col" containing at runtime the ID of the table column that was clicked.

To use it inside the action handler, you have to do a parameter mapping. In older releases this has to be done programmatically in method wdDoModifyView() like this:

if (firstTime)
{
  IWDTable myTable = (IWDTable) view.getElement("ID-of-Table");
  myTable.mappingOfOnSort().addSourceMapping
  (
    IWDTable.IWDOnSort.COL, /* event parameter name constant */ 
    "columnID" /* action parameter name */
  );  
}

If there is no interface IWDOnSort in your release, use "col" as event parameter name.

The action must have a parameter "columnID" od type "string".
