The direction would be part of the EOSortOrdering for that property.

Subject: Re: EOFetchSpecification - sorting by partial date

wow this is great! and I even understand the ‘Derived’ selection now. I still 
don’t see how to set the sort direction. Oscar’s example of the SQL it 
generates shows an order by of ASC. what if I want DESC?

enquiring minds need this stuff!!!

Maybe I was right the first time.  :-)  I know that I have used this before, 
somewhere.  So Calven, try something like this (remove the Read Format) and 
make it Read Only.

Hi all,
I used a derived column  like this (EXTRACT(YEAR FROM fechaIngreso) * 100 + 
EXTRACT(MONTH FROM fechaIngreso))

and it generates this sql

SELECT (EXTRACT(YEAR FROM t0.fechaingreso) * 100 + EXTRACT(MONTH FROM 
t0.fechaingreso)) FROM ep_empxcom t0
ORDER BY (EXTRACT(YEAR FROM t0.fechaingreso) * 100 + EXTRACT(MONTH FROM 
t0.fechaingreso)) ASC

It works with postgres, I think it will work in oracle too.

Saludos,
         Oscar.

I have to sort tens of thousands of rows. :(

It looks like I have to resort to creating a view in the database.

I do not think so, the table reference may be required for more complex select 
with joins and the frameworks cannot really know when put it or not (or it 
would require a deep analyses of the query)

Unless you have to sort thousands of rows and most of them will never be 
displayed or used, I would sort in memory.

If you do not specify a fetch limit, you can probably sort in memory...

Is there a way in WO to remove the t0 from the order by clause?

As it turns out, this method does not work in the WO application. (It does work 
when executing it from a SQL command line) The fetch spec fails when the new 
column is included the sort:

EvaluateExpression failed:

FROM APPT_DATE) * 100 + EXTRACT(MONTH FROM APPT_DATE)) AS "YEARMTH", FROM 
the_table t0 ORDER BY t0.YEARMTH ASC,
    Next exception:SQL State:42000 -- error code: 904 -- msg: ORA-00904: 
"T0"."YEARMTH": invalid identifier


If the new column is removed from the sort then the select statement works:
SELECT (EXTRACT(YEAR FROM APPT_DATE) * 100 + EXTRACT(MONTH FROM APPT_DATE)) AS 
“YEARMTH" FROM the_table t0


This is the new column created in EntityModeler:
(EXTRACT(YEAR FROM APPT_DATE) * 100 + EXTRACT(MONTH FROM APPT_DATE)) AS 
“YEARMTH"


Any other ideas, other than creating a new view in the database or new column 
in the table?

Thanks Chuck!

I had to add the ŒAS¹ clause to the Read Format, otherwise, I
received an invalid SQL statement.  I then took advantage of the
situation by concatenating my two values (year and month) and padded
the month so that I would always get a 6 digit string so I could then
do some comparisons with the value for a report.

Read Format:
EXTRACT(YEAR FROM APPT_DATE) || LPAD(EXTRACT(MONTH FROM APPT_DATE),
2, '0') AS YM

I just looked in there. How do you set that up? I tried playing but

Just a note that you can use the  extract (year from theDate) and
extract (month from theDate) in a derived column in EntityModeler
which avoids the need for a view.

you didn¹t mention your database, but I have done things like this
with a view.

I created a view with the appropriate columns and in the select
statement I put in the order by

CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW myNewView AS SELECT info1, info2, theDate
FROM theTable ORDER BY extract (year from theDate) desc, extract
(month from theDate) asc;

A one point I actually set up some rules to make the ŒVIEW¹
updatable.

YMMV obviously depending on you access to the backend, and if Views
are supported.

Hi, All
I have a fetch that sorts records by three columns where one of the

Here is the current fetch:

    NSMutableArray orderings = new NSMutableArray();
    orderings.addObject(sortBySource);
    orderings.addObject(sortByAppt);
    orderings.addObject(sortBySite);
EOFetchSpecification spec = new EOFetchSpecification(³records",
qual, orderings);
