The Legacy Ektron.Cms.API.Library is replaced by Ektron.Cms.API.LibraryManger() in the current CMS version
The LibraryManger() uses a LibraryCriteria.AddFilter(...). The sort is limited by the LibraryCriteria.AddFilter use of LibraryProperty. This has a limited set of values. The retrieved Data is collected in a libraryDataList. This contains column names.
The LibraryManger() uses a LibraryCriteria.AddFilter(...)
The LibraryProperty contains a limited set properties for sorting.
Populating a new DataList sorted by any libraryDataList.Columname extends sorting when managed as follows:
Instantiate a DataList. Apply LINQ , coding to sortBy any of the column Names, to the libraryDataList
assigning the sorted libraryDataList results to the new instantiated DataList.
This is the output Code Sample:
var DataList = (from ifile in libraryDataList
orderby ifile .Title descending
select ifile).ToList();
