How to order Sets in Node

[bytor99999]

public class Event {
    @RelatedToVia(type = ITEMS_NEEDED_FOR_EVENT)
    @Fetch
    private Set<ItemNeededForEvent> itemsNeededForEvent;

    @RelatedTo(type = ItemUserIsBringingToEvent.EVENT_FOR_ITEM_BROUGHT, direction = Direction.INCOMING)
    private Set<ItemUserIsBringingToEvent> itemsBringingToEvent;
}

So if I load an Event the collection is populated, but how could I get it sorted for instance. If I change it to SortedSet, would that work? Is there anything in the annotation to set an order by when retrieving?

Thanks

Nope.

I'd try the SortedSet approach. Let me know what you find.

You can also try an @Query annotated field for loading the objects and use the cypher sorting. The default set-type is a HashSet though, so your sorting would be killed. Can you raise an issue so that we can use a SortedSet (like TreeSet) when the target field is of type SortedSet.

Thx

I raised a JIRA Issue, but forgot to post here, so forgot the number.
