Method Detail

getAvailableItems

java.lang.Object[] getAvailableItems()

Returns the items in which sorting is allowed. The availableItems contains all the items in which sorting is allowed on the model, all other items are to be non-sortable.

Returns:

An array of items in which sorting is allowed.

getHiddenAvailableItems

java.lang.Object[] getHiddenAvailableItems()

Returns the hidden items in which sorting is allowed. The hiddenAvailableItems contains all the hidden items in which sorting is allowed on the model, all other items are to be non-sortable.

Returns:

An array of items in which sorting is allowed.

getAllItems

java.lang.Object[] getAllItems()

Returns the items in which sorting is allowed. The allItems contains all the items in which sorting is allowed on the model, all other items are to be non-sortable.

Returns:

An array of items in which sorting is allowed.

getSortedItems

java.lang.Object[] getSortedItems()

Returns the items that the table is to sort. The length of the array can be from 0 to maxSortableItems.

Returns:

An array of objects that are the items on which the data is sorted.

setSortedItems

void setSortedItems(java.lang.Object[] itemNames)

Sets the items that the table is to sort. The length of the array will be from 0 to maxSortableItems.

Parameters:

itemNames - an array of objects that are the items on which the data is sorted

Returns:

An array of ints that indicate which direction the sort items are to be sorted. Valid values are ASCENDING or DESCENDING.

setSortedDirections

void setSortedDirections(int[] directions)

Sets an array of ints that indicate which direction each item in the sortItems array is to be sorted. The array will be the same size of the sortItems. Valid values are ASCENDING or DESCENDING.

Parameters:

directions - an array of ints that indicate which direction the sort items are to be sorted
