I am dynamically adding org.richfaces.component.html.HtmlColumn classes to a rich:dataTable. The table data is displayed and the headers are plain labels with sorting disabled, no anchor, no script, no sort images. I have tried every combination of sortable, selfSorted, sortBy and sortExpression. The one assumption I am making is that the sortBy(Object o) is the getter you would put on the page?
{code}
org.richfaces.component.html.HtmlColumn col = new HtmlColumn();
HtmlOutputLabel header = new HtmlOutputLabel();
header.setValue(colName);
col.setHeader(header);
col.setSortable(true);
col.setSelfSorted(true);
col.setSortBy("#{item.foo}");
resultsDataTableUI.getChildren().add(col);
{code}
{code:xml}
<h:panelGroup id="dataTablePanelGroup" layout="block" style="overflow:scroll; width:933px; height:340px;">
<rich:dataTable id=dynamicResultsTable" value="#{bean.resultList}" var="item"
binding=#{bean.resultsDataTableUI}" rows=10/>
</h:panelGroup>
