public MutableSortDefinition()Create an empty MutableSortDefinition, to be populated via its bean properties. -
MutableSortDefinition
Copy constructor: create a new MutableSortDefinition that mirrors the given sort definition.- Parameters:
source
- the original sort definition
-
MutableSortDefinition
Create a MutableSortDefinition for the given settings.- Parameters:
property
- the property to compareignoreCase
- whether upper and lower case in String values should be ignoredascending
- whether to sort ascending (true) or descending (false)
-
MutableSortDefinition
public MutableSortDefinition(boolean toggleAscendingOnSameProperty) Create a new MutableSortDefinition.- Parameters:
toggleAscendingOnSameProperty
- whether to toggle the ascending flag if the same property gets set again (that is,setProperty
gets called with already set property name again).

Method Details
-
setProperty
Set the property to compare.If the property was the same as the current, the sort is reversed if "toggleAscendingOnProperty" is activated, else simply ignored.

getProperty
Description copied from interface:SortDefinition
Return the name of the bean property to compare. Can also be a nested bean property path.- Specified by:
getProperty
in interfaceSortDefinition
-
setIgnoreCase
public void setIgnoreCase(boolean ignoreCase) Set whether upper and lower case in String values should be ignored. -
isIgnoreCase
public boolean isIgnoreCase()Description copied from interface:SortDefinition
Return whether upper and lower case in String values should be ignored.- Specified by:
isIgnoreCase
in interfaceSortDefinition
-
setAscending
public void setAscending(boolean ascending) Set whether to sort ascending (true) or descending (false). -
isAscending
public boolean isAscending()Description copied from interface:SortDefinition
Return whether to sort ascending (true) or descending (false).- Specified by:
isAscending
in interfaceSortDefinition
-
setToggleAscendingOnProperty
public void setToggleAscendingOnProperty(boolean toggleAscendingOnProperty) Set whether to toggle the ascending flag if the same property gets set again (that is,setProperty(java.lang.String)
gets called with already set property name again).This is particularly useful for parameter binding through a web request, where clicking on the field header again might be supposed to trigger a resort for the same field but opposite order.
