My implementation of PaginatedList is similar to yours. I do sort the
information before setting the list on my PaginatedListImpl and this works
fine. The problem that I'm having is when the user clicks on the column to
sort. Displaytag adds the "sort=XXX" and "dir=asc" to the query string. I
am not comparing the "Item" class otherwise I would override the equals and
hashcode methods. I am comparing a String which is a member of the
"InnerTestClass" which resides in the "Item" class. This is where my
problem lies....I can't seem to reference the property correctly.
What displaytag will allow for initial page rendering is this:
<display:column property="innerClass.testId" title="Item Uid"
sortName="testId">
${foo.innerClass.testId}
</display:column>
When I click on the column, however, it blows up unless I handle stripping
off the "innerClass" and set "testId" as the "sort" param in my interceptor
(hacky). What I wish worked is this:
<display:column property="testId" title="Item Uid" sortName="testId">
${foo.innerClass.testId}
</display:column>
Then I could simply take the sort param of "testId", do the comparison and
have the sorting work.
Thx,
Juliana
