apply a filter to sap.ui.table.Column / sap.ui.table.Table

Hi Team,

I'm trying to apply a filter programmatically via java script:

  press : function() {

  sap.ui.table.Column ... .setFilterValue("CH");

  sap.ui.table.Column ... .setFiltered(true);

  }

this code adds the filter "CH" to the column, but the table is not filtered/updated. Which function do I have to call?

In other words, where is the "apply" filter function? And is this function placed on the table or on the column?

Thanks and regards,

Tobi
