Sorting in ListView/NestedListView in servermode

Hallo Dennis,
thank you for your answer. We have tried your solution. It works perfectly in rootListViews, but for NestedListViews the SetCollectionSorting method is not called. Do you have any hints how to get it working?
Thank you
Christian

Oh, I somehow missed the fact that the PropertyCollectionSource class does not explicitly apply sorting. I sincerely apologize. This is an improvement we can consider for the future. So, at this time I can only suggest you create a custom PropertyCollectionSource class and plug it in on the corresponding XafApplication's class event.

Hi Dennis,
thank you very much. Finally it works. I implemented this code:
        protected override void SetCollectionSorting(IList<DevExpress.Xpo.SortProperty> sortProperties)
        {
            if (MasterObject != null)
            {
                ProxyCollection proxyCollection = Collection as ProxyCollection;
                if (proxyCollection != null)
                {
                    XPBaseCollection xpBaseCollection = proxyCollection.OriginalCollection as XPBaseCollection;
                    if (xpBaseCollection != null)
                    {
                        xpBaseCollection.Sorting.AddRange(sortProperties.ToArray<SortProperty>());
                    }
                }
            }
        }

protected override IList<SortProperty> GetCollectionSorting()
        {
            return this.Sorting;
        }
It's important to check if the MasterObject is null or not. If you don't do so, you will get a Stackoverflow Exception in MasterDetailMode (I was very lucky to find this exception before our other developers ;))

Hello Kim,
I am glad to hear of your progress. Please track the Core - Pass sorting options from the application model into PropertyCollectionSource feature request I created in this regard.
