[英]Java Comparable - custom compareTo consequences
I have a question regarding a specific overriding of compareTo.我有一个关于 compareTo 的特定覆盖的问题。
class Sjavac {
static class A implements Comparable<A> {
@Override
public int compareTo(A a) {
return 1;
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return this.getClass().toString();
}
}
static class B extends A {
@Override
public int compareTo(A a) {
return 1;
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
List<A> list = new ArrayList<>();
list.add(new A());
list.add(new B());
Collections.sort(list);
for(A a : list){
System.out.println(a);
}
}
}
The result I get is that first A's string is printed, and then B's.我得到的结果是首先打印 A 的字符串,然后是 B 的。
My question is, why is this the result?我的问题是,为什么会是这样的结果? What exactly happends in this case?
在这种情况下究竟发生了什么? When A is compared to B, it is considered bigger, and when B is compared to A it is considered bigger.
当 A 与 B 相比时,它被认为更大,而当 B 与 A 相比时,它被认为更大。 Than what determines that order?
是什么决定了那个顺序?
Thanks谢谢
In this case the result is undefined because you can't sort a list where the elements are changing.在这种情况下,结果是未定义的,因为您无法对元素发生变化的列表进行排序。 So, if you want to know why this is the result you have to check how the sorting algorithm works.
所以,如果你想知道为什么会出现这个结果,你必须检查排序算法是如何工作的。
You are comparing B to A and return B should come after A (in B's compare to method).您正在将 B 与 A 进行比较,并且返回 B 应该在 A 之后(在 B 的比较方法中)。 Also, you are comparing A with A and saying the first one should come after the second one (in A's compare to method).
此外,您将 A 与 A 进行比较,并说第一个应该在第二个之后(在 A 的比较方法中)。 Then, you have a list with A object and B object.
然后,您有一个包含 A 对象和 B 对象的列表。 Sorting this, A is compared to B, B is greater (comes later), and that is returned.
对此进行排序,将 A 与 B 进行比较,B 更大(稍后出现),然后返回。
The trick happened here, why do Collections.sort method choose B's implementation of compareTo?诀窍在这里发生了,为什么 Collections.sort 方法选择 B 的 compareTo 实现? Because it's late binding!
因为是后期绑定! It's inheritance.
是传承。 Check this implementation, with console printing...
检查此实现,使用控制台打印...
