Create SortOrder object that has no sorting order or sorting key
New is a member of the SortOrder class.
This method creates a new instance of the SortOrder class. The SortOrder created by New is empty, that is, without a sorting order or sorting key. Applied as the parameter of a Sort or SortNew method, an empty SortOrder produces a copy of the input collection.
Syntax
%sord = New
Syntax terms
| %sord | A SortOrder object variable to contain the new object instance. |
|---|
Usage Notes
- New is a constructor and as such can be called with no object,
with an explicit class
name and collection item type, or with an object variable, even if
that object is null:
%sord = new %sord = %(sortOrder for object stringlist):new %sord = %sord:new %arraylist2 = %arraylist1:sortnew(new)
