Description Xixi 2010-08-06 18:45:54 UTC
Description of problem:
On Satellite 5.3, when editing an activation key, under Groups -> Join section  the groups are displayed in random order (unsorted). It has only one field displayed which is Group Name and hence it should be by default sorted. It should not be displayed in any random order.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite 5.3.0

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a 5.3 Satellite with >5-6 system groups created with different names
2. Edit any existing activation key -> Groups -> Join
3. Check the ordering of Group Names

Actual results:
Group list in random order (unsorted).

Expected results:
Group list sorted alphabetically by name.

Comment 1 Xixi 2010-08-06 18:47:30 UTC
This seems to be caused by frontend.action.token.groups.AddGroupsAction not sorting the List of groups. Proposed patch attached.

Comment 3 Xixi 2010-08-06 18:53:38 UTC
On second thought, I'm not sure if the method getResults() is only called when the page is first displayed.  If that's not the case please ignore the patch (since it may cause it to always to be sorted in ascending order which means users can't sort it in reverse).
