Adding a custom sorter to a column on a dbdg

Attached is a sample that sorts a column based on string.length by having a custom object implement IComparable. If your custom object is not editable in the grid, then this would be all you would need I think. But if your custom object needed to be editable within the grid''s UI, then you would need more work, maybe deriving a cell control that understood your object and how to edit it.

Could you please make a sample for ASP.NET?
Thank you!

Hi Navid,

Thank you for evaluating Syncfusion Products.

You can sort the columns using Icomparable interface based on the length of the string in the cell of the grid by the following code:




public class MyObject : IComparable
{
public MyObject(string s)
{
this.s = s;
}
public override string ToString()
{
return s;
}

string s;
public string Val
{
get { return s; }
set { s = value; }
}

public int CompareTo(object obj)
{

return this.ToString().Length - obj.ToString().Length;
}



Please refer the sample in the link below which illustrates the above:

Please try running this and let me know if this helps.

Thanks,
Janagan.
