Is there a way to sort a list of GenericValue objects by number on a
column that is actually a string representation of a number?
Ex.
I have a party list where the externalId of the rows are
1,2,...,10,11,...,22.
When I query and order by externalId they come back as
1
10
11
2
22
I would like to be able to sort the externalId column as if it were a
number. I thought about after the query adding a column to each
GenericValue in the list, but do not think I can
gvObject.set("columnAsNumber", Integer.valueOf(stringValue)) if the
columnAsNumber does not already exist in the entity definition.
