When an activity involves displaying tabular data (such as rows of users, groups, etc), this method might be called to set up $data fields for next, prev, and page links, it also makes the call to the model to get the row data sorted and restricted as desired. For some data sources, rather than directly make a call to the model to get the data it might be passed directly to this method.
public

- $data : array<string|int, mixed>
-
used to send data to the view will be updated by this method with row and paging data
- $field_or_model : mixed
-
if an object, this is assumed to be a model and so the getRows method of this model is called to get row data, sorted and restricted according to $search_array; if a string then the row data is assumed to be in $data[$field_or_model] and pagingLogic itself does the sorting and restricting.
- $output_field : string

if not specified by $_REQUEST, then this will be used to determine the maximum number of rows that will be written to $data[$output_field]
- $search_array : array<string|int, mixed> = []
-
used to sort and restrict in the getRows call or the data from $data[$field_or_model]. Each element of this is a quadruple name of a field, what comparison to perform, a value to check, and an order (ascending/descending) to sort by
- $var_prefix : string = ""
-
if there are multiple uses of pagingLogic presented on the same view then $var_prefix can be prepended to to the $data field variables like num_show, start_row, end_row to distinguish between them
- $args : array<string|int, mixed> = null
-
