Detailed Description

makes it possible to sort the contents of this object.

The available properties describing the sort criteria are defined in the sort descriptor implemented by the object that implements this interface.

There are older deprecated sort descriptors:

And a new set of sort descriptors:

Both types may be implemented by the same object. When calling the sort method however properties from different descriptors must not be mixed.

◆ createSortDescriptor()

sequence< com::sun::star::beans::PropertyValue > createSortDescriptor ( )
Returns
a sequence of properties which allows to specify/modify the sort criteria.

The set of properties is specific to the type of object that implements this interface. Therefore they can usually be used only for objects of that same type.

◆ sort()

void sort ( [in] sequence< com::sun::star::beans::PropertyValue xDescriptor)

sorts the contents of the object according to the specified properties.

The specified properties are usually the same or a subset of those obtained by calling createSortDescriptor() on the same type of object.
