  org.pfsw.text.ReverseComparator<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.util.Comparator<T>

public class ReverseComparator<T>
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.util.Comparator<T>

Provides a comparator implementation that is a wrapper around another comparator with the purpose to reverse the compare order of the given objects. That allows to easily reverse the sort order of any object collection for which a comparator is available.

ReverseComparator

public ReverseComparator(java.util.Comparator<T> aComparator)

Initialize the new instance with another comparator

compare

public int compare(T o1,
                   T o2)

Compares its two arguments for order. Returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as the first argument is greater than, equal to, or less than the second.
