Re: Facing Issues with velocity sortTool to sort Two java.util.Date

Could you be more specific about what you mean by "not working"? What
happens? The code sample looks like you are already implementing the
search pattern you want. Why not just try:
$sorter.sort(${campaign.notes})

If there is an exception (like a NullPointerException) during sorting,
then SortTool will return null. The null field is apparently causing
an exception. I'm not sure why, but i would guess that it is because
the java.util.Date class' compareTo method doesn't like it when you
pass in null as an argument. SortTool never calls compareTo on a null
object, but it will pass null objects in to compareTo (e.g.
myNotNullComparable.compareTo(nullComparable) ).
That's the best guess i have for you. You might try subclassing
SortTool to right your own sort method that can handle this situation.
or just making your Note class comparable and doing
$sorter.sort(${notes}).

Re: Facing Issues with velocity sortTool to sort Two java.util.Date Type
Posted by Ranjeet <ra...@ebusinessware.com>.
Hi,
I have a DTO Note.java in which there are some porperty like createdAt and
updatedAt of java.util.Date type. I want to sort the order of list by
updatedAt and createdAt. When I create the note/entity on that time I set
java.util.Date() in createdAt property and not set in updatedAt so updatedAt
property is null in db and dto both at very first, when I am going to update
the same note/entity on that time I set the java.util.Date in updatedAt
property and update the entity then both property becomes not null, means
some values in dto and table. Now I want to sort the order of list by
updatedAt and createdAt so recent updated record should come on top and want
to shwo only recent five records only. If updatedAt and createdAt property
is not null then works fine. for example if there is 3 record and 2
note/entity are updated and one is not updated, means in list of 3 dto , 2
dto have values in updatedAt and in one DTO the value in updatedAt is null,
in this scenario not sorting and not displaying the records. I mean if any
of the updatedAt property is null in dto list then not display the record,.
I could not find the solution why this is not displaying while sorting?
Thanks & Regards,
Ranjeet
