Im trying to sort my planes by Ascending and Descending order. I have a hashmap of planes and i want to compare them so that i can get the next plane due and last plane due by sorting the map by timeLimitBeforeLand. I wrote a compareTo method which looks like :
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// CompareTo() used with the Comparable implementation.
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
public int compareTo(Object arg0)
{
if((arg0 != null) && (arg0 instanceof Plane))
{
Plane p = (Plane) arg0;
return (int)Math.ceil(this.timeLimitBeforeLand - p.getLimitBeforeLand());
}
return 0;
}
CompareTo takes timeLimitBeforeLand:
// ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Name: getTimeLimitBeforeLand.
// Description: Get the time before every plane is going to land.
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
public double getTimeLimitBeforeLand()
{
double fuelConsumption;
double timeLimitBeforeLand = 0;
for (TreeMap<String, Plane> theEntry : airlineMap.values()) {
for (Plane aPlane : theEntry.values()) {
if (aPlane.getPlaneType() == aPlane.getPlaneType().AIRBUS) {
System.out.println(" ");
System.out.println(aPlane);
fuelConsumption = 2;
timeLimitBeforeLand = (double) (aPlane.getFuelRemaining() / fuelConsumption);
System.out.println(timeLimitBeforeLand + " minutes to land.");
System.out.println(" ");
} else if (aPlane.getPlaneType() == aPlane.getPlaneType().CORPORATE) {
System.out.println(" ");
System.out.println(aPlane);
fuelConsumption = 3;
timeLimitBeforeLand = (aPlane.getFuelRemaining() / fuelConsumption);
System.out.println(timeLimitBeforeLand + " minutes to land.");
System.out.println(" ");
} else if (aPlane.getPlaneType() == aPlane.getPlaneType().PRIVATE) {
System.out.println(" ");
System.out.println(aPlane);
fuelConsumption = 4;
timeLimitBeforeLand = (double) (aPlane.getFuelRemaining() / fuelConsumption);
System.out.println(timeLimitBeforeLand + " minutes to land.");
System.out.println(" ");
}
}
}
return timeLimitBeforeLand;
}
My attempt so far in the mainApp:
TreeMap<String, PlaneStore> map = new TreeMap<String, PlaneStore>();
ArrayList<Plane> copyList = new ArrayList<Plane>(map.);
Plane comp = new Plane();
Collections.sort(copyList, plane);
Plane Class:

The second argument in Collections.sort
is for a Comparator not a Plane
. Since I saw no mention of a Comparator, you should be able to use the natural order (defined by the compareTo method in your Plane object) and not have a second argument in the Collections.sort
EDIT : Unless you have just excluded that code, you aren't creating any Plane instances and you're using empty collections here...
TreeMap<String, PlaneStore> map = new TreeMap<String, PlaneStore>();
ArrayList<Plane> copyList = new ArrayList<Plane>(map.);
and you will be sorting by PlaneStores so you have to obtain all the Plane
s in each PlaneStore and add them to your copyList
before sorting.
I would consider researching each of the Collections a little more and deciding what the best one for your need would be.
