This class defines a series of static methods that are used on a +Ext.data.Field for performing sorting. The methods cast the +underlying values into a data type that is appropriate for sorting on +that particular field. If a Ext.data.Field.type is specified, +the sortType will be set to a sane default if the sortType is not +explicitly defined on the field. The sortType will make any necessary +modifications to the value and return it.
+ ++It is also possible to create a custom sortType that can be used throughout +an application. +
Ext.apply(Ext.data.SortTypes, {
+ asPerson: function(person){
+ // expects an object with a first and last name property
+ return person.lastName.toUpperCase() + person.firstName.toLowerCase();
+ }
+});

+ sortType: 'asPerson'

+ name: 'salary',
+ type: 'float' // sortType set to asFloat
