sort multidimensional arrays

Is there a way to sort an array that has more than one dimension by telling Gambas on which field the sorting shoiuld be done?
For example, if I have the array Max, 14 Anna, 8 Fabien, 7 I would expect the result of sorting by the first field to be Anna, 8 Fabien, 7 Max, 14 Instead, when using Array.Sort, I get 7, 8 14, Anna Fabien, Max which is useless. I have a workaround now, reading the array into a single-dimensioned array like Max~14 Anna~8 Fabien~7 and then sort it, which produces Anna~8 Fabien~7 Max~14 and then split and read everything back to the original array: Anna, 8 Fabien, 7 Max, 14 But that just works, it's not really elegant. Somebody knows a better way? Thanks Matti ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

The array Sort() method is very simple, as it sorts the contents of the array linearly, whatever the number of dimensions is. A workaround is using a Object[], and storing each line of your table inside by using a dedicated class, or another array. Sorting an Object[] calls the "_compare" public method on each object. This way you can sort the array the way you want. Look at the documenation of Object[].Sort() in the wiki for more details. In Gambas 3, you don't have to use an Object[], you can use a Variant[][] instead.

Sounds good, but I can't imagine how to store "each line of your table" into an Object[] Could you give an example? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

Perhaps this way:
Class1 sName as String iNumber as Integer Dim oo as New Object[] Dim item as New Class1 item.sName = "Max" item.iNumber = 14 oo.Add(item) Jussi On Tue, Oct 27, 2009 at 00:52, Matti <math.eber@...> wrote: > > Benoît Minisini schrieb: > >> A workaround is using a Object[], and storing each line of your table inside >> by using a dedicated class, or another array. > > Hmm.
