Class Sorter<T>

A Sorter<T> implements the generic IComparer<T> interface to compare two objects of type T, using a caller-supplied sort specification (which includes the fields to consider during sorting, and the sort direction). A field value resolver then is used to retrieve, for a specific field, the value of that field in each of the two instaces which are currently compared.

Syntax

public class Sorter<T> : IComparer<T>

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T

Constructors

Sorter(IFieldValueComparer<T>, SortSpecification)

Initializes a new instance of the Sorter class with a specified comparer and sort specification.

Declaration

public Sorter(IFieldValueComparer<T> comparer, SortSpecification sortSpecification)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IFieldValueComparer<T>	comparer	The field comparer object used for sorting.
SortSpecification	sortSpecification	The sort specification.

Sorter(IFieldValueComparer<T>, SortSpecification, SortDisambiguator)

Initializes a new instance of the Sorter class with a specified comparer and sort specification.

Declaration

public Sorter(IFieldValueComparer<T> comparer, SortSpecification sortSpecification, SortDisambiguator sortDisambiguator)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IFieldValueComparer<T>	comparer	The field comparer object used for sorting.
SortSpecification	sortSpecification	The sort specification.
SortDisambiguator	sortDisambiguator	An optional disambiguator which is called if the sort criteria do not sufficiently define the sort order between two search result objects.

Methods

Compare(T, T)

Compares the two items and returns an indication of their relative value.

Declaration

public int Compare(T x, T y)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
T	x	The first of the two items to compare.
T	y	The second of the two items to compare.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Int32	Less than zero if x is less than y, zero if x equals y, greater than zero if x is greater than y.
