The article that Amit Doshi shared really helped me; I recommend it. Thank you Amit. For those who follow the article, pay attention to a couple of details though. I believe there are only two mistakes in the article that need correction:

1) In the first <liferay-ui:search-container-column-text> tag, it is missing the orderableProperty="firstName" attribute. If you ran into an exception like: "jodd.bean.BeanException: Simple property not found: ... Invalid property:", this could be the reason (it was for me).

2) In the CustomComparatorUtil class, make sure that the orderByCol.equalsIgnoreCase("First Name") is instead:
orderByCol.equalsIgnoreCase("firstName") (and do the same for the rest of orderable properties). If you don't change this, the search container might display, but you won't be able to use the sorting.

Hi,
For each column create one class that extends OrderByComparator
then override compare method

 @Override
    public int compare(Object obj1, Object obj2)
    {}

and one constructor to fetch the boolean ascending order as a parameter e.g if name is your column

 public NameComparator(boolean asc)
    {
        this.asc = asc;
    }

create a class to compare the values

use "com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.OrderByComparator"
 if (orderByType.equals("asc"))
        {
            orderByAsc = true;
        }
 if (orderByCol.equals("name"))
        {
            orderByComparator = new NameComparator(orderByAsc);
        } 

in your jsp

<liferay-ui:search-container-results>
			&lt;%
				ComparatorUtil.sortList(request, assetList, searchContainer);
				results = ListUtil.subList(assetList, searchContainer.getStart(), searchContainer.getEnd());
				total = assetList.size();
				pageContext.setAttribute("beginIndex",searchContainer.getStart());
				pageContext.setAttribute("endIndex",searchContainer.getEnd());
				pageContext.setAttribute("results", results);
				pageContext.setAttribute("total", total);
			%&gt;
</liferay-ui:search-container-results>

Hope this will help
