[opencms-dev] Order of the files in the Workplace

[Federico Larumbe]

Hello Maria.

I developed a quick solution for the issue we had here. We needed to order
files by "Last Modified Time".

To do this, I have added a Resources comparator first:

--------------------- org.opencms.file.CmsResource  ----------------------
   /**
     * A comparator for 2 resources. First the folders, alphabetically by
name ignoring case differences. Then, files by dateLastModified.
     * If two files have the same dateLastModified, compare by name.<p>
     */
    public static final Comparator
COMPARE_DATE_MODIFIED_FOLDERS_FIRST_ALPHABETICALLY = new Comparator() {

        /**
         * @see java.util.Comparator#compare(java.lang.Object,
java.lang.Object)
         */
        public int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {

            if ((o1 == o2) || !(o1 instanceof CmsResource) || !(o2
instanceof CmsResource)) {
                return 0;
            }

            CmsResource r1 = (CmsResource)o1;
            CmsResource r2 = (CmsResource)o2;

            if (r1.isFolder() && !r2.isFolder()) {
                return -1;
            } else if (r2.isFolder() && !r1.isFolder()) {
                return 1;
            }
            if(r1.isFolder() && r2.isFolder()) {
            	// if they are folders, compare the name of the resource
            	return
r1.getRootPath().compareToIgnoreCase(r2.getRootPath());
            }
            else {
            	long date1 = r1.getDateLastModified();
                long date2 = r2.getDateLastModified();

                return (date1 < date2) ? -1 : 
                		(date1 > date2) ? 1 : 
 
r1.getRootPath().compareToIgnoreCase(r2.getRootPath());
            }
        }
    };
------------------------------------------------------------------------


Then I change VFS Driver to use this Comparator to sort files:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
org.opencms.db.generic.CmsVfsDriver. Method readChildResources(...).
I replaced line previous to "return result;" to:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Collections.sort(result,
CmsResource.COMPARE_DATE_MODIFIED_FOLDERS_FIRST_ALPHABETICALLY);


Regards,
Federico.

Hello everybody!!

Has anyone implemented in their workplace the feature of sorting the 
files and folders in the workplace clicking to the titles?
Something similar will be very usefully for me.
Thanks in advance and have a nice day!!

Maria
