ADF Faces: columns sort problem

Question

Hi all,
I'm new ADF Faces italian user and I have some problem sorting columns of table component...
I have tried to convert my ResultSet in a List, and the data are correctly inserted in the "af:table" but the column sort don't work...
I have already read the "af:table" Oracle specification but I have not just found a solution...
This is the part of my backing bean that return the List:
private List anagsList;
public List getAnagsList()
Connection connection;
Statement statement;
ResultSet resultset;
try
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@192.168.168.75:1521:ORA1", "EL2DEMO", "admin");
statement = connection.createStatement();
if(inputText1.getValue().toString().equals(""))
resultset = statement.executeQuery("SELECT AN_RAGSOC, AN_NOME, AN_DATANASCITA FROM ANAGS");
else
String query="SELECT AN_RAGSOC, AN_NOME, AN_DATANASCITA FROM ANAGS WHERE ";
query=query + "AN_RAGSOC LIKE '%" + inputText1.getValue() + "%' OR ";
query=query + "AN_NOME LIKE '%" + inputText1.getValue() + "%' OR ";
query=query + "AN_DATANASCITA LIKE '%" + inputText1.getValue() + "%'";
resultset=statement.executeQuery(query);
anagsList = new ArrayList();
while(resultset.next())
anagsList.add(new AnagsRecord(resultset.getString(2), resultset.getString(1), resultset.getString(3)));
resultset.close();
statement.close();
connection.close();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println(e);
return anagsList;
This is my AnagsRecord class:
package mypackage.backing;
public class AnagsRecord
private String nome;
private String cognome;
private String dataNascita;
public AnagsRecord(String nome, String cognome, String dataNascita)
setNome(nome);
setCognome(cognome);
setDataNascita(dataNascita);
public String getNome()
return nome;
public void setNome(String nome)
this.nome = nome;
public String getCognome()
return cognome;
public void setCognome(String cognome)
this.cognome = cognome;
public String getDataNascita()
return dataNascita;
public void setDataNascita(String dataNascita)
this.dataNascita = dataNascita;
And this is table component:
<af:table var="al" emptyText="No records found."
rows="20" value="#{backing_ADFFaces.anagsList}"
banding="row" bandingInterval="1">
<af:column sortable="true" sortProperty="dataNascita">
<f:facet name="header">
<af:outputText value="DATA NASCITA"/>
</f:facet>
<af:outputText value="#{al.dataNascita}"/>
</af:column>
<af:column sortable="true" sortProperty="cognome">
<f:facet name="header">
<af:outputText value="COGNOME"/>
</f:facet>
<af:outputText value="#{al.cognome}"/>
</af:column>
<af:column sortable="true" sortProperty="nome">
<f:facet name="header">
<af:outputText value="NOME"/>
</f:facet>
<af:outputText value="#{al.nome}"/>
</af:column>
</af:table>
I have already installed the ADF Faces demos (column_sortable.jspx) and it works well, but the backing bean is not very understandable...
please help me...
ciao!
