hi,
After sorting turned on , when edit a column, sorting gets turned off .
And i am trying to call different methods of sorting inside addDataChangedHandler , still sorting is not working.
Different methods tried :
setCanSort(true);
setCanReorderRecords(true);
setSortField(0);
resort();

................................................................................
addDataChangedHandler(event -> {
if (Boolean.TRUE.equals(this.getResultSet().lengthIsKnown())) {

GWT.log("spe" + getSortState());
String vs = getSortState();
GWT.log("sp" + vs);
setCanSort(true);
setCanReorderRecords(true);
setSortField(0);

}

You may have a look at updatePartialCache property.
Also these forum threads could be helpful:

updatePartialCache is not working.

addDataArrivedHandler(event-> {
this.getResultSet().setUpdatePartialCache(true);

});

Please suggest other alternative.

See updatePartialCache docs: when you have a partial cache, after the sorted column is edited, there are only two choices:

1. keep the cache but (correctly) remove the sort indicator, so that the edited record doesn't pop out of view (updatePartialCache:true). Then drop the cache if anything happens that relies on the current sort (such as scrolling to load more data)

2. drop the cache and re-fetch (updatePartialCache:false)

If you want #2, you must set updatePartialCache to false.

Usually, you want the default, #1. A legit reason for #2 is relatively rare, so the likely thing you want to do here is: nothing, the behavior is already correct and as desired.
