Constructor Summary

IntegerComparator()

Method Summary

int	compare(Object x1, Object x2) A C-style comparison function that returns a negative value if the first object is less than the second, a positive value if the second object is less, and 0 if the two objects are equal.
boolean	isComparable(Object o) Allows a container (or any client) to find out whether an object is a member of the ordered set over which this comparator is defined.

            throws ClassCastException

Description copied from interface: Comparator

A C-style comparison function that returns a negative value if the first object is less than the second, a positive value if the second object is less, and 0 if the two objects are equal.

Specified by:

compare in interface Comparator

Specified by:

compare in class AbstractComparator

Returns:

a negative value if x1 < x2, zero if x1 == x2, and a positive value if x1 > x2

Throws:

ClassCastException

isComparable

public boolean isComparable(Object o)

Description copied from interface: EqualityComparator

Allows a container (or any client) to find out whether an object is a member of the ordered set over which this comparator is defined.

Specified by:

isComparable in interface EqualityComparator

Parameters:

o - Object you propose to compare with this comparator

Returns:

Whether o is a non-null java.lang.Integer
