Hi Thanks for your respond. Can you give me a simplest sample of a class that extends Filter (one that doesn't need to do anything and return the whole result). I found it very confusing and I don't know what to do with that class Filter:
- Where is the data that it need to work with? I can only see constrain in the performFilter() function - For the publishResults() function. What do I need to do with it? I don't see anything like a context that can help me reach out of the class so how can I publish the result? - And for the FilterResults class, isn't the values need to be Object[] or List<Object> because it's said to "Contains all the values computed by the filtering operation. ". Thank you. On Apr 3, 1:36 am, "Romain Guy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > The best thing to do is indeed to override getFilter() and return a > Filter that will do what you are proposing.
