[jira] [Created] (FREEMARKER-62) ?sort_by to accept Iterable

Ondra Žižka created FREEMARKER-62:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: ?sort_by to accept Iterable
                 Key: FREEMARKER-62
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FREEMARKER-62
             Project: Apache Freemarker
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: engine
    Affects Versions: 2.3.26-incubating
            Reporter: Ondra Žižka
            Priority: Minor


Currently, {{?sort_by()}} only accepts a {{List}}.
It's not complicated to create an {{iteratorToList() FreemarkerMethod}}, though.

So this is a suggestion to make {{?sort_by}} accept an {{Iterable}}, and if it detects it was called for Iterable and not a List, it would create the sorted list. It could use heapsort maybe.
