$filter is basically just added into the SQL WHERE statement. So the format is standard sql without the 'WHERE'. For example
DataObject::get('ListingPage', "ListingType = 'Business'");
You can combine more then 1 command in the filter... eg
DataObject::get('ListingPage',"ListingType = 'Something' AND AnotherColumn = '2'");

I encountered a problem with Dataobject again.
I want to grab a sortted dataset (byListingDate DESC) from database frist.
can do it by using:
$listings=DataObject::get("ListingPage","","ListingDate DESC");Then select the ListingPage items by different Categories.
So i did$filter="ListingType='Business'";
$records= DataObject::get($listings,$filter);return $records;
i assume it should give me the result i want, because the $listings should also be a "ListingPage" Type object and as well as the "$records". But seems the result is a little bit strange..
Donot know whats the good way to handle the twice DB queries. anysuggestions will be appreciated..

Hi, you seem to have the wrong end of the stick with the DataObject::get() method.
Have a look at this: http://doc.silverstripe.org/doku.php?id=datamodel#querying_data
Simply, you define you DataObject class, filter, sort order, join and limit all in one function (but seperate parameters, of course). All the parameters take strings and all are optional except the first parameter.
So what you want to do, seems to be:
DataObject::get('ListingPage','ListingType = "Business"','ListingDate DESC');
Thus getting all the listing pages where column 'ListingType' is 'Business' and then sorted by ListingDate with newest at the top.
Hope that clears that up.

Hey.thx, Pigeon.
I was totally wrong about the things i am archiving.
Originally, i think it could be helpful, we can sort of the listing pages by date desc then the lastest come up first. and we can sort of the lastest items by different categories.. But acutally its stupid..
Its better to do DataObject::get("ListingPage",$fitler,"ListingDate DESC");
Thanks for ur suggestion and answer for my stupid logical problem..

->sort($order);
