This function will return a complete sort function
to be used with usort and as a second argument to
create_argument (Ensure the first parameter to
create_function is '$a,$b':
usort($item_rs, create_function('$a,$b', get_usort_function('title ASC, owner_id ASC, s_item_type DESC')));
array(
array(title=>'Crow, The',owner_id=>'jpell',s_item_type=>'DVD'),
array(title=>'Rambo',owner_id=>'martin',s_item_type=>'DVD'),
array(title=>'Good Will Hunting',owner_id=>'lucy',s_item_type=>'VHS')
);
The call to get_usort_function('title ASC, owner_id ASC, s_item_type DESC'), results in the following
generated function:
$title=strcmp($a[title], $b[title]); if($title==0){$owner_id=strcmp($a[owner_id], $b[owner_id]); if($owner_id==0){return strcmp($b[s_item_type], $a[s_item_type]);}else{return $owner_id;}}else{return $title;}
The order_by_clause should look something like this:
'item_id ASC, owner_id DESC, title ASC'
