I'm trying to apply a sort to an XMLListcollection that is assigned to a
dataprovider.
Each element of the collection has the following format and I've no
control over the format to change it.
<f>
<ra>blah</ra>
<ro>blah</ro>
<fs>
<di>the name to filter on</di>
<s>other stuff</s>
</fs>
</f>
I am trying to sort on the node <di> so I've done the following
var sort:Sort = new Sort();
sort.fields = [new SortField("di", true, true)];
and applied that to the dataprovider that contains the XMLListCollection
and done the refresh.
I doesn't do the sort but what it does do is swap the first element of
the collection with another halfway through the collection (so if
collection has 22 elements the is swaps [0] with [11]).
If I do the sort on nodes such as 'ra' or 'ro' (new SortField("ra",
true, true)]; or new SortField("ro", true, true)];) then they work fine
so I'm presuming it's because the node 'di' is another level below the
main children.
Any ideas?
Cheers.
