I have a list of objects of type A, and I have to order it for a field of A, which is of type String.
public class A{
public String field1;
public Integer field2;
...
}
If I had to order for the int field would have done so:
Collections.sort(listOfA, new Comparator<A>() {
public int compare(A p1, A p2) {
return p1.field2 - p2.field2);
}
});
But unfortunately need to order by the field of type String.
How can I do this?
public int compare(A p1, A p2) {
return p1.field2.compareTo( p2.field2) );
}
Alternatively your class could implement interface Comparable , like this
public class A implements Comparable<A> {
public String field1;
public Integer flied2;
public int compareTo(A o) {
return this.field1.compareTo(o.field1);
}
}
Which would allow you to
Collections.sort(listofA);
Which IMO is preferable/cleaner if A's are always sorted by field1.
你可以使用 String compareTo
Old thread, nevertheless.
With java 8, you now have lambdas:
listOfA.sort((a,b) -> a.field1.compareTo(b.field1));
Also, if one had a getter for field1, which one probably should, you could also then do
listOfA.sort(Comparator.comparing(A::getFieldOne));
If you don't have a getter, there's also this:
listOfA.sort(Comparator.comparing(a -> a.field1));
