column sortable works but still renders sort arrows

Is this by design or is this a bug?

Even when sortable equals to "false", the sort arrows appear if there is a sortBy attribute.

Example:

<rich:column sortBy="#{address.addressType.name}" sortable="#{!util.isPrintDecorator(facesContext)}">
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="Address Type" />
</f:facet>
<h:commandLink action="#{userProfileManager.viewUserAddress}"
 value="#{address.addressType.name}" />
</rich:column>

Use selfSorted instead of sortable.

I tried that...the sort icons do not appear and sorting is not an option...regardless of whether the EL expression equates to "true" or "false" (boolean).

Why would this be?

I also joined selfSorted with "sortable" in a number of combinations; seems so long as I have an expression for selfSorted, the column will not be sortable.

Is this a bug?

I take that back...I had made a mistake on my part. Sorry for the short fuse.

Works as expected - thanks for the suggestion.
