如何在asp.net中的GridView中对数据进行排序

Question

How to sort datatable obtained by GridView according to some column. I am trying to do something like this but it is not working.

protected void GridView_Sorting(object sender, GridViewSortEventArgs e)
{
    if (sender.GetType() != typeof(GridView))
        return;
    DataTable dt = (DataTable)((GridView)sender).DataSource;

    DataTable dtClone = dt.Clone();


    dt.AsEnumerable().OrderBy(row => row.Field <string>(e.SortExpression));
    ((GridView)sender).Source(dtClone);
}

Answer 1

You can either re-bind the gridview to the sorted datatable, or you can apply the sort expression to the gridview itself rather than the underlying bound table.

This is a pretty good summary with links to examples:

Answer 2

Add the attributes OnSorting="gridView_Sorting" AllowSorting="true" in Gridview

and SortExpression="ColumnName" in the column

and implement OnSorting Event.

I've done something like this in the past to sort a DataTable:

DataTable dt = new DataTable(); // your data table
dt.DefaultView.Sort = "your_field" + "sort_direction";
DataView dv = new DataView(dt);
dv.Sort = ("your_field" + "sort_direction");
yourGridView.DataSource = dv;

Answer 4

When sorting, make sure to cast your table to a DataView. You'll save yourself a lot of time over manually implementing sorting methods.
