Hi All,
I have
DocList
Doc
Name
Age

I want to sort this DocList using FlowService by order of Age
I can do it by java service, but i dont want that.

Thanks a lot

Hi,

There is no build in service for sorting…you have to write a java service for it…or you can build on the logic in flow too

Here is a sample how you can do it…

input:
itemList(document List)
keyField(String)
sortDecending(String)

output:
itemList(document List)
sorted(String)

IData[] sortedItemList = null; 

// pipeline 
IDataCursor pipelineCursor = pipeline.getCursor(); 
IData[] itemList = IDataUtil.getIDataArray( pipelineCursor, "itemList" ); 
String keyField = IDataUtil.getString( pipelineCursor, "keyField" ); 
boolean sortDescending =  
(Boolean.valueOf(IDataUtil.getString( pipelineCursor,  
"sortDescending" ))).booleanValue(); 
pipelineCursor.destroy(); 

if(itemList != null) 
{ 
sortedItemList =  
IDataUtil.sortIDataArrayByKey(itemList,  
keyField,  
IDataUtil.COMPARE_TYPE_COLLATION,  
null,  
sortDescending); 
} 

// pipeline 
pipelineCursor = pipeline.getCursor(); 
IDataUtil.put( pipelineCursor,  
"sorted", sortedItemList==null ? "false" : "true"); 
pipelineCursor.destroy();
