Sort Function

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Under my node functions in the mapping editor I do not have a Sort function...

Is it possible for someone to write me a code to do the same?

Thank you

Hi,

yes you can write the code of a generic sort function youself

(in an advanced user defined function)

or you can update the SP of your XI server (so it will have all new features)

BTW

writing it yourself will probably give you more flexibility

Regards,

Hi thank you... Unfortunately it did not solve it...

However I was able to come up with the code and here it is for anyone who needs a sort function and doesn't have SP13 or above...

Vector vID = new Vector();

for (int i=0; i<a.length; i++) {

if (!vID.contains(a<i>)) vID.add(a<i>);

}

Collections.sort(vID);

for (int i=0; i<vID.size(); i++) {

result.addValue((String)vID.get(i));

}

Hi,

I think its available from SP 14 itself.

Did u try the last post i made in the last thread? It should solve the problem.

Michal is it possible for some code to do the same?

As I can only write simple functions and even then only decision type functions...

Also could you let me know from what SP the sort function is available... we are on SP12

[Former Member]

sort function is available from SP13 onwards...
