@DefaultKey("collection") public class CollectionTool extends SafeConfig implements Serializable

CollectionTool allows a user to sort a collection (or array, iterator, etc) on any arbitrary set of properties exposed by the objects contained within the collection, and to generate arrays by splitting strings.

The sort functionality is specifically designed to use within a #foreach but you may find other uses for it.

The sort methods can handle all of the collection types supported by #foreach and the same constraints apply as well as the following. Every object in the collection must support the set of properties selected to sort on. Each property which is to be sorted on must return one of the follow:

  • Primitive type: e.g. int, char, long etc
  • Standard Object: e.g. String, Integer, Long etc
  • Object which implements the Comparable interface.

During the sort operation all properties are compared by calling compareTo() with the exception of Strings for which compareToIgnoreCase() is called.

The sort is performed by calling Collections.sort() after marshalling the collection to sort into an appropriate collection type. The original collection will not be re-ordered; a new list containing the sorted elements will always be returned.

The tool is used as follows:

 Single Property Sort
 #foreach($obj in $sorter.sort($objects, "name"))
   $obj.name Ordinal= $obj.ordinal
 #end
 End

 Multiple Property Sort
 #foreach($obj in $sorter.sort($objects, ["name", "ordinal"]))
   $obj.name, $obj.ordinal
 #end
 End

The sort method takes two parameters, a collection and a property name or an array of property names. The property names and corresponding methods must conform to java bean standards since commons-beanutils is used to extract the property values.

By default the sort tool sorts ascending, you can override this by adding a sort type suffix to any property name.

The supported suffixes are:

 For ascending
 :asc
 For descending
 :desc

 Example
 #foreach($obj in $sorter.sort($objects, ["name:asc", "ordinal:desc"]))
   $obj.name, $obj.ordinal
 #end

This will sort first by Name in ascending order and then by Ordinal in descending order, of course you could have left the :asc off of the 'Name' property as ascending is always the default.

Example tools.xml config (if you want to use this with VelocityView):

 <tools>
   <toolbox scope="application">
     <tool class="org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.SortTool"/>
   </toolbox>
 </tools>

    • setStringsDelimiter

      protected final void setStringsDelimiter(String stringsDelimiter)
      Sets the delimiter used for separating values in a single String value. The default string delimiter is a comma.
      参数:
      stringsDelimiter - strings delimiter
      另请参阅:

    • getStringsDelimiter

      public final String getStringsDelimiter()
      Gets the configured strings delimiter
      返回:
      strings delimiter

    • setStringsTrim

      protected final void setStringsTrim(boolean stringsTrim)
      Sets whether strings should be trimmed when separated from a delimited string value. The default is true.
      参数:
      stringsTrim - flag value
      另请参阅:

    • getStringsTrim

      public final boolean getStringsTrim()

      返回:
      whether to trim strings

    • configure

      protected void configure(ValueParser values)
      Does the actual configuration. This is protected, so subclasses may share the same ValueParser and call configure at any time, while preventing templates from doing so when configure(Map) is locked.
      覆盖:
      configure 在类中 SafeConfig
      参数:
      values - configuration values

    • split

      public String[] split(String value)
      参数:
      value - the value to be converted
      返回:
      an array of String objects containing all of the values derived from the specified array, Collection, or delimited String

    • sort

      public <T> Collection<T> sort(Collection<T> c, Comparator<T> comparator)
      Sorts a Collection using a Comparator. A defensive copy is made of the Collection beforehand, so the original Collection is left untouched and null elements filtered out.
      类型参数:
      T - collection content class
      参数:
      c - The Collection to sort.
      comparator - The comparator to use for sorting.
      返回:
      A copy of the original Collection, sorted using the supplied Comparator.

    • sort

      public <T> T[] sort(T[] a, Comparator<T> comparator)
      Sorts an array using a Comparator. A defensive copy is made of the array beforehand, so the original array is left untouched and null elements filtered out.
      类型参数:
      T - array content class
      参数:
      a - The array to sort.
      comparator - The comparator to use for sorting.
      返回:
      A copy of the original array, sorted using the supplied Comparator.

    • sort

      public <T> Collection<T> sort(Map<?,T> map, Comparator<T> comparator)
      Sorts a Map's values using a Comparator. A defensive copy is made of the values beforehand, so the original Map is left untouched.
      类型参数:
      T - Map values class
      参数:
      map - The Map whose values should be sorted.
      comparator - The comparator to use for sorting.

    • sort

      public Collection<?> sort(Object o, Comparator<?> comparator)
      Sorts a Collection (or array, or Map's values) using a Comparator. A defensive copy is made of the original beforehand, so the original is left untouched. Unsupported collection objects result in a null return value.
