(I can't figure out the order from the example you showed).
kind regards,

  • How to sort a list of strings, without methods and stuff just simple code?

    Hi
    How to sort a list of strings, without methods and stuff just simple code?
    Thanks in adavance!!

    Without methods? How are you going to all the sort code? What is the point of code?
    Collections.sort(List) will sort strings or anything that implements the Comparable interface, or you can use the sort method that takes a Comparator implemenation.
    If you want "just code", you could either get the Collections class souce and follow it to the code. But otherwise, there isn't one set of code. There are various sorting algorithms with advantages and disadvantages. Maybe you'd be better off searching for sorting algorithms and if you understand them, it should be simple to write Java implementations of them.

  • ALV: How to sort multiple columns?

    Hi all,
    Good morning!
    I have a requirement to sort multiple columns in ALV. I did a search and tried with following codes:
    data: lo_config_alv  type ref to cl_salv_wd_config_table.
    lo_config_alv->if_salv_wd_table_settings~set_multi_column_sort( value = abap_true ).
    But I still can not sort for multiple columns.
    Please guide me how to do that.
    Thanks,
    Khanh

    Hello,
    If you want to sort ALV by multiple fields, then you have to create sort rule for each field and set sort position for each field to specify the sequence in which you want to sort multiple columns.
    Here is a sample code:
    * Sort rows by PRICE descending
      DATA: lr_field1 TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_field.
      DATA: lr_rule1 TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_SORT_RULE.
      lr_field1 = lv_value->if_salv_wd_field_settings~get_field( 'PRICE' ).
      lr_field1->if_salv_wd_sort~create_sort_rule( EXPORTING sort_order = if_salv_wd_c_sort=>sort_order_descending
                                                   RECEIVING value = lr_rule1 ).
      lr_rule1->set_sort_position(  2 ). "set the sort position to 2
    * Sort rows by seatsmax descending
      DATA: lr_field2 TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_field.
      DATA: lr_rule2 TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_SORT_RULE.
      lr_field2 = lv_value->if_salv_wd_field_settings~get_field( 'SEATSMAX' ).
      lr_field2->if_salv_wd_sort~create_sort_rule( EXPORTING sort_order = if_salv_wd_c_sort=>sort_order_descending
                                                              RECEIVING value = lr_rule2 ).
      lr_rule2->set_sort_position( 1 ). "set the sort position to 1
    * Sort rows by seatsocc descending
      DATA: lr_field TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_field.
      DATA: lr_rule3 TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_SORT_RULE.
      lr_field = lv_value->if_salv_wd_field_settings~get_field( 'SEATSOCC' ).
      lr_field->if_salv_wd_sort~create_sort_rule( EXPORTING sort_order = if_salv_wd_c_sort=>sort_order_descending
      RECEIVING value = lr_rule3 ).
      lr_rule3->set_sort_position( 3 ). "set the sort position to 3
    In the above code, the sequence of sorting would be seatsmax price seatsocc
    If you dont specify the sort position, then the sequence of sorting would be the order in which the sort rules are created.
    In the above example, if we didnt set sort positions for the fields, then order would be price seatsmax seatsocc.

    Hope this helps!

  • How to Sort Multiple Column In ALV_LIST_DISPLAY

  • How to sort multiple t:dataTable columns with Tomahawk?

    Hello, I'm using Tomahawk with MyFaces and I'm trying to sort my table by couple of columns. I have year and month cols and when I sort by year and two years are equal, I want to subsort by the months. I actually tried to create a sort method taking sortColumn and ascending as params, but it didn't get invoked by the app. I also tried to put commandButton as headers which call sort(ActionEvent), but it still didn't get invoked. May anyone show me how could I write a backend for the sorting?
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Mario

    Yes, there is a comparator. I don't find the problem so much TOmahawk specific, I'm actually trying to solve it without it too. But I found where the problem is - in the <t:column> tag - when sortable attribute is enabled, it doesn't call any external methods, no matter if they are actions or actionListeners.
    So when I removed the sortable attribute, my backend method got called. :)
    Regards,
    Mario

  • How to Sort JTable data using Multiple fields (Date, time and string)

    I have to fill the JTable data with some date, time and string values. for example my table data looks like this:
    "1998/12/14","15:14:38","Unicorn1","row1"
    "1998/12/14","15:14:39","Unicorn2","row2"
    "1998/12/14","15:14:40","Unicorn4","row3"
    "1998/12/17","12:14:12","Unicorn4","row6"
    Now the Sorted Table should be in the following way:
    "1998/12/17","12:14:12","Unicorn4","row6"
    "1998/12/14","15:14:40","Unicorn4","row3"
    "1998/12/14","15:14:39","Unicorn2","row2"
    "1998/12/14","15:14:38","Unicorn1","row1"
    ie First Date field should be sorted, if 2 date fields are same then sort based on time. if date and time fields are same then need to be sorted on String field.
    So if any one worked on this please throw some light on how to proceed. I know how to sort based on single column.
    But now i need to sort on multiple columns.So what is code change in the Comparater class.
    Thanks in advance.. This is urgent....

    I think your Schedule objects should implement Comparable. Then you can sort your linked list using the Collections.sort() method without passing in a Comparator.class Schedule(Date date, String class) implements Comparable
      public void compareTo(Object obj)
        Schedule other = (Schedule)obj;
        return date.getTime() - other.getDate().getTime();
    }

  • How to use multiple VCI strings for lap 1300 and 1200 (option 60) in one pool?

    Hi All,
    Hope to you a very happy new year,
    I have two differnt LAP 1300 and 1200 in my network and I need to add theme to the WLC,
    I successed to add one of theme by the option 60 in the DHCP pool at the Core SW,
    So my quetion is below:
    How to use multiple VCI strings for lap 1300 and 1200 (option 60) in one pool?
    Thanks in Advanced,
    Ahmed,

    To add to Scott's post.  Option 60 would be useful if you needed to put certain types of AP on specific controllers.  Otherwise, no real need to use it for the most part.
    Though, I do recall an issue a few years ago that some windows machines had issues getting DHCP if option 43 is being returned.
    Now, on an IOS switch, you can only configure one option 60 per DHCP scope

  • Sort Alphanumeric string in OBIEE answers

    Hi...
    I have a time slot column in my table. I holds data as follows,
    10AM-12PM
    9AM-11AM
    11AM-1PM
    How to sort the report with these column. If i sort it, it was showing data as follows.
    10AM-12PM
    11AM-1PM
    9AM-11AM
    Can u please help to reslove the issue

    If you are specifically trying to use a string function to resolve your issue, then you can try below.
    Pull another slot column in your Answers request and use evaluate function, to derive a timestamp (using oracle to_date funtion) column. Then you can sort this column and hide it in your report.
    Something like below can be used derive timestamp from say '10AM-11AM':
    select to_date(substr('10AM-11AM',1,instr('10AM-11AM','-')-1),'HHAM') from dual --Output 2011-09-01 10:00:00
    Similarly,
    select to_date(substr('10PM-11PM',1,instr('10PM-11PM','-')-1),'HHAM') from dual --Output 2011-09-01 22:00:00
    See if it suits your requirement.

    Thanks..

    How to sort on MULTIPLE Keys which are elements of
    VO's stored in a list.. without disturbing the
    ordering done by previous sorting...?Do you mean you want to do a heirarchical sort? Where the secondary key is only used when the primary keys are equal etc.? That's pretty trivial. If the primary keys are equal, check the secondary key. How do you sort words in alphabetical order? It's the same process.

  • How to sort data in PL/SQL table and print them in Order?

    Hi Guys
    I wan to create a csv file layout as below, maximum we got 12 weeks sales figure for each item. Week is week of the year, it will different every time based on sales_date.
    Item Number     Description     Sales Week      27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20..
    1234          Sample                10     6     2     8     10          
    1230          Test                50     60     2      10          
    I got item number, description, week_no and sales in a temp table which is populated by a procedure. Now I need to write these records from table to a file.
    I not sure how to store multiple records for each item in PL/SQL table, sort them and print them in above format.
    My select statement is as below
    select item_number,
    description,
    week_no,
    year,
    opening_stock_qty,
    production_qty,
    sales_qty,
    creation_date,
    (production_qty - sales_qty) net_qty
    from xxsu_planning_report
    order by item_number,year,week_no;
    Any help will be much appreciated.
    Thanks and regards
    VJ

    Above error occured because you are trying to concatenate dbms output with some other string, which is not allowed.
    Declare
    TYPE plan_type IS TABLE OF xxsu_planning_report%ROWTYPE
    INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
    plan_table plan_type;
    BEGIN
    plan_table(1).week_no := 24;
    plan_table(1).description := 'This is week 24';
    plan_table(2).week_no := 21;
    plan_table(2).description := 'This is week 21';
    for i IN 1..2 loop
    dbms_output.put_line(plan_table(i).week_no) || ' ' || plan_table(i).description);
    end loop;
    END;From your code, I didnt understood what you want to do. Using Associative Array would be wrong approach in this case.
    As per your scenario, you have to store max 12 records for each item number.
    create or replace type dailySales as object(Description varchar2(100), Sales number,  Week number);
    create or replace type saletab as table of dailySales;
    create table t_sales (p_item number, p_sales saletab);
    insert into t_sales values
    (p_item, ---------enter value for item number 1
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 1
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 2
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 3
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 4
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 5
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 6
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 7
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 8
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 9
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 10
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)), ---------enter value for sales record for week 11
    saletab(dailySales($n1,$n2,$n3)) ---------enter value for sales record for week 12
    Enter 0 if no sales exist for any week. Because NULL would throw an exception.
    Execute the SQL query to check the output.Try this and let me know if any fyrther issues.

  • Finding the smallest letter in a single alphanumeric string

    How do I find the smallest letter in a single alphanumeric input?
    I already wrote and successfully tested the code that takes an alphanumeric string as input, separates the number from the alphabet, and creates a new alphabetic string. However, I'm unsuccesful in writting the code to find the smallest letter within the alphabetic string. I am almost certain that the easy answer is Arrays.sort, but I unsuccesfully tried writing the code to place the alphabetic string into an array. I researched compareTo, but I do not have another object to compare?! Any suggetsions?

    Ahh flaimbait - I'm sure I'll get criticized for this... but - while we are talking about time-to-market, etc...:
    The most important issue in development is to make sure that you understand the project requirements. The requirements in this situation were:
    Find the smallest character in a string.
    Given that, then any developer that goes through the trouble of looking up the sort APIs, etc... is not helping themselves - all they really needed to do was to write one line of code (as xxxx graciously posted):
    for (int x=0; x<foo.length(); x++) if (foo.charAt(i)<low) low=foo.charAt(x);I absolutely guarantee that any Java programmer could write the above faster than they could figure out how to split a string appart by characters, look up the arraysort API, etc...
    The arraysort functions are EXTREMELY efficient, and I would never suggest that someone re-implement them. The point here is that just because you've got a wrecking ball available, you can still use a hammer to drive a nail.

  • How to store multiple files from SAp in to Application server?

    Hi Guys,
                 Can anybody tell me how to store multiple files from SAP into Application server.in my application i have to get the data from SAP tables BSEG , BKPF , BSAK and BSIK that to daily i have to do.
                Any Logic  or Code for how to do is welcomed.
                        plz help me urgently.
    Thanks,
    Gopi

    Hi,
      directories creates basis. If you have task to store data in application server you already should have information into which folder you have to do it. If you don't have this information because it is just for example training for next task then you can use your personal folder into which you have access. To get list of all available folders please look at attached code and form get_directories (you get the list of folders you see in transaction AL11). But don't forget: If you are using open dataset you have to have rights to access application folder!
    Here you are code which I use to upload text files from local disc into application folder

  • How to select multiple values from the parameters in BI Publisher report

    How to select multiple values from the parameter drop down in BI Publisher, and how to handle this mulitple values from the report sql...

    Hi kishore,
    I have used all the steps as you mentioned in your previous reply....including checking Mulitple Selection Check Box..
    Iam able to get the results when I am selecting one value..
    and also I am able to handle multiple values the in the query by using IN :Parameter, but seems when we select more than one value from the parameter drop down i think the Bi Publisher is sending the values in concatenated form something ilke
    ex: "'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'" ,and when trying to display the parameters values in the output, its throwing the error as 'missing right paranthesis' ....on the whole do you have any solution which would handle
    1.Single selection.
    2.Multiple selection.
    3.'ALL' Values.
    4.Separating the concatenated string into individual strings and dispaly them on the output of the report..etc..in case of Mulitple selection.
    Ex:
    Concatenated String from BI Publisher:"'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'"
    Expected Output on the report:ACCOUNT,HR,SALES
    reply to this would be much appreciated....
    thanks,
    manoj
