Using mFilter with Custom Resource Output

If mFilter builds the filter form but the listing comes from another snippet, the two sides need a shared understanding of the current result set and parameters.

mFilter can generate a filter UI, but many projects want the filtered results rendered through a different listing tool. That is where integration becomes the real problem.

Typical question

Can the collection produced or constrained by mFilter be reused by a getResources or custom output layer?

Recommendation

Treat the filter state as the primary artifact. Once you know exactly how mFilter expresses the selected resources and sort state, you can decide whether another renderer can consume the same information cleanly.
