SortingCollection.Add(SortingCollection) Method

Adds the SortProperty objects from the specified collection.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpo

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpo.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#

public void Add(
    SortingCollection sortProperties
)

VB.NET

Public Sub Add(
    sortProperties As SortingCollection
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
sortProperties	SortingCollection	A SortingCollection object which represents the collection whose elements are added to the current collection.

Remarks

Adding an element to the collection doesn’t automatically apply sorting by the corresponding property (column). To re-sort data, create a new SortingCollection object, populate it with customized SortProperty objects and reassign it to the XPBaseCollection.Sorting property.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to sort a collection (xpCollectionPerson) in ascending order against a ‘Name’ field.

C#

using DevExpress.Xpo;
using DevExpress.Xpo.DB;

SortingCollection sortCollection = new SortingCollection();
sortCollection.Add(new SortProperty("Name", SortingDirection.Ascending));
xpCollectionPerson.Sorting = sortCollection;

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.Xpo
Imports DevExpress.Xpo.DB

Dim sortCollection As SortingCollection = New SortingCollection()
sortCollection.Add(New SortProperty("Name", SortingDirection.Ascending))
XpCollectionPerson.Sorting = sortCollection
