Class LocaleOrderingFilter

java.lang.Object

org.dspace.browse.LocaleOrderingFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

TextFilter

public class LocaleOrderingFilter
extends Object
implements TextFilter

Makes a sort string that is Locale dependent. Uses the same Locale for all items, regardless of source language. You can set the Locale to use by setting 'webui.browse.sort.locale' in the dspace.cfg to an ISO code. If you do not specify a Locale, then it defaults to Locale.ENGLISH. IMPORTANT: The strings that this generates are NOT human readable. Also, you will not be able to meaningfully apply any filters *after* this, however, you can apply other filters before.
