Ok, so I am closer.
If I have this:
192.168.168.12
192.168.168.129
192.168.168.24
hellokitty
bigsmelly
When sorting I get this (with the normal flex sorting):
192.168.168.129
192.168.168.12
192.168.168.24
bigsmelly
hellokitty
And if I use my own sort function and perform several sorts quickly I get an
Error:
"Find criteria must contain at least one sort field value "
My sort function:
private function testCompareFunc(itemA:Object, itemB:Object):int {
var valueA:String = itemA;
var valueB:String = itemB;
return ObjectUtil.stringCompare(valueA, valueB);
}
Any suggestions? Not sure how to do a string and number comparison.
TIA
