Sort PageTypeCollection?
Vote:
Hi,
I want to have a list of all pagetypes sorted alphabetically. The list is no problems using EPiServer.DataAbstraction.PageType.List(), but I can´t find an easy way to do the sorting. Any ideas?
Regards

This code will do the sorting.
#14339
PageTypeCollection ptc = PageType.List();
foreach(PageType pt in ptc)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(pt.LocalizedName);
}
ptc = SortPageTypes(ptc, "LocalizedName");
foreach(PageType pt in ptc)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(pt.LocalizedName);
}
internal static PageTypeCollection SortPageTypes(PageTypeCollection unSortedCollection, string sortProperty)
{
PageTypeCollection sortedCollection = new PageTypeCollection();
foreach(PageType pageType in unSortedCollection)
{
System.Reflection.PropertyInfo propInfo = pageType.GetType().GetProperty(sortProperty);
if(propInfo == null)
{
throw new ApplicationException(string.Format("Property '{0}' not a member of type '{1}'", sortProperty, pageType.GetType().Name));
}
object currentValue = propInfo.GetValue(pageType, null);
bool inserted = false;
if(currentValue != null)
{
for(int i = 0; i < sortedCollection.Count; i++)
{
object compareValue = sortedCollection[i].GetType().GetProperty(sortProperty).GetValue(sortedCollection[i], null);
if(currentValue.ToString().CompareTo(compareValue) < 0)
{
sortedCollection.Insert(i, pageType);
inserted = true;
break;
}
}
if(!inserted)
{
sortedCollection.Add(pageType);
}
}
}
return sortedCollection;
}

Couldn't you use the SortedList?
#14340
EPiServer.DataAbstraction.PageTypeCollection ptc = EPiServer.DataAbstraction.PageType.List();
System.Collections.SortedList sl = new System.Collections.SortedList();
foreach (EPiServer.DataAbstraction.PageType pt in ptc)
{
sl.Add(pt.Name, pt);
}
