Entry sorting for Export

[halirutan]

JabRef version 3.3dev--snapshot--2016-03-28--master--f9f6cec on Ubuntu 14.04.

When I try to export a database to a different format (I tried simpleHTML and my own implementation of Markdown), the sorting order of the entries is not used. It doesn't matter if I set the current sorting by clicking on the columns or if I'm using the default sorting accessed through Preferences -> Entry Table.

The only thing the error console shows is

WARNING: []

I found similar issues that were reported some years ago where the solution always was to set the default sorting. It would be helpful if someone could confirm that this indeed works.

As there have been recently fixes with Entry exporting, did you try the latest version from master?

Let me add some official example data. I'm using this test.bib. I have set the default sorting to year (and title as second) and it looks good in the interface

When I choose File -> Export and export to simple html, then the ordering is destroyed:

@Siedlerchr Let me try the latest snapshot.

@Siedlerchr Same behavior with the latest snapshot. I updated the version in the original issue description.

@halirutan Thanks for your update and reproducing the issue.

@halirutan halirutan Just to double check: Did you choose "Export in current table sort order" in the preferences as shown in the screenshot?

@koppor Thank you. Since this option was not available until recently (my ubuntu comes originally with 2.10beta) I did not notice this additional setting when testing version 3!

That solves the problem!
