Hello!
I'm new to RichFaces framework, I want to do one thing:
table with paging and sorting, where sorting by some field is enabled when I'm clicking header of column (not link) - classical view with icons that show direction of sorting (asc or desc).
I've tried example
http://richfaces-showcase.appspot.com/richfaces/component-sample.jsf?demo=dataTable&sample=arrangeableModel&skin=blueSky
Paging is working perfectly. I tried to do sorting.
I have MyDataModel extends ExtendedDataModel<MyData> implements Arrangeable. I have method "walk" where I'm getting sortFields from ArrangeableState. I just need sortable headers in table which will be passed into ArrangeableState state object. How can I get such table headers?
<rich:dataTable id="richTable" var="log"
value="#{myBean.dataModel}" rows="20">
<rich:column id="system" sortBy="#{log.system}">
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="System"/>
</f:facet>
<h:outputText value="#{log.system}" />
</rich:column>
...
<f:facet name="footer">
<rich:dataScroller id="scroller" />
</f:facet>
</rich:dataTable>
I have table with pagination but without any action when I click column header. I'm expecting such sequence: I click column header, image showing direction appears (asc or desc), then my method arrange(FacesContext context, ArrangeableState state) is executed, I save ArrangeableState object, then my method "walk" is executed. In this method I'm getting sort fields: arrangeableState.getSortFields(). Then I call visitor.process(context, myObj.getId(), argument).
Thank you!
