Members

  • cSorts
    Count of SSortOrder structures that are included in the aSort member.

  • cCategories
    Count of columns that are designated as category columns. Possible values range from zero, which indicates a non-categorized or standard sort, to the number indicated by the cSorts member.

  • cExpanded
    Count of categories that start in an expanded state, where all of the rows that apply to the category are visible in the table view. Possible values range from 0 to the number indicated by cCategories.

  • aSort
    Array of SSortOrder structures, each defining a sort order.

Remarks

A SSortOrderSet structure is used for defining multiple sort orders for standard and categorized sorting.

Each SSortOrderSet structure contains at least one SSortOrder structure defining the direction of the sort and the column that will be used as the sort key. For categorized sorting, this column is used as the category. When the value of the cSorts member exceeds the value of the cCategories member, there are more sort keys than categories, and categories are created from the columns that appear first in the SSortOrder array.

For example, if cSorts is set to 3 and cCategories is set to 2, the columns described by the ulPropTag member of the first two entries in the SSortOrder array are used as the category columns. The first entry serves as the top-level category grouping; the second entry as the secondary grouping. All of the rows that match the two category columns are sorted by using the sort key defined in the third entry.

The cExpanded member specifies the number of categories that are at first expanded. When there are multiple categories, the table implementation starts with the first column to be designated as a category and continues in sequential order with the subsequent category columns until the number of cCategories has been exceeded. If there are more category columns than there are expanded columns, the category columns are collapsed. If cExpanded is equal to zero, only the top level heading row is available to the table user for display. If cExpanded is equal to one less than the number of categories, then all of the heading rows and none of the leaf rows are available. If cExpanded is equal to the number of categories, then the table is fully expanded.
