假设你有一些对象，它们有几个字段可以比较:
public class Person {
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
private String age;
/* Constructors */
/* Methods */
}
所以在这个例子中，当你问if:
a.compareTo(b) > 0
你可能会问a的姓是不是在b的姓之前，或者a的年龄是不是比b大，等等……
在不增加不必要的混乱或开销的情况下，在这些类型的对象之间进行多重比较的最干净的方法是什么?
comparable接口只允许通过一个字段进行比较 在我看来，添加大量的比较方法(如compareByFirstName()， compareByAge()等)是混乱的。
那么最好的解决办法是什么呢?

晚做总比不到好——如果你正在寻找不必要的混乱或开销，那么很难同时在最少的代码/快速执行方面击败下面的方法。
数据类:
public class MyData {
int id;
boolean relevant;
String name;
float value;
}
比较器:
public class MultiFieldComparator implements Comparator<MyData> {
@Override
public int compare(MyData dataA, MyData dataB) {
int result;
if((result = Integer.compare(dataA.id, dataB.id)) == 0 &&
(result = Boolean.compare(dataA.relevant, dataB.relevant)) == 0 &&
(result = dataA.name.compareTo(dataB.name)) == 0)
result = Float.compare(dataA.value, dataB.value);
return result;
}
}
如果你只是想按自定义顺序对集合进行排序，那么下面的代码就更清晰了:
myDataList.sort((dataA, dataB) -> {
int result;
if((result = Integer.compare(dataA.id, dataB.id)) == 0 &&
(result = Boolean.compare(dataA.relevant, dataB.relevant)) == 0 &&
(result = dataA.name.compareTo(dataB.name)) == 0)
result = Float.compare(dataA.value, dataB.value);
return result;
});

//here threshold,buyRange,targetPercentage are three keys on that i have sorted my arraylist
final Comparator<BasicDBObject>
sortOrder = new Comparator<BasicDBObject>() {
public int compare(BasicDBObject e1, BasicDBObject e2) {
int threshold = new Double(e1.getDouble("threshold"))
.compareTo(new Double(e2.getDouble("threshold")));
if (threshold != 0)
return threshold;
int buyRange = new Double(e1.getDouble("buyRange"))
.compareTo(new Double(e2.getDouble("buyRange")));
if (buyRange != 0)
return buyRange;
return (new Double(e1.getDouble("targetPercentage")) < new Double(
e2.getDouble("targetPercentage")) ? -1 : (new Double(
e1.getDouble("targetPercentage")) == new Double(
e2.getDouble("targetPercentage")) ? 0 : 1));
}
};
Collections.sort(objectList, sortOrder);
您可以实现一个Comparator来比较两个Person对象，并且可以检查任意数量的字段。你可以在比较器中放入一个变量，告诉它与哪个字段进行比较，尽管只编写多个比较器可能会更简单。
从Steve的回答开始，三元操作符可以使用:
public int compareTo(Person other) {
int f = firstName.compareTo(other.firstName);
int l = lastName.compareTo(other.lastName);
return f != 0 ? f : l != 0 ? l : Integer.compare(age, other.age);
}
import com.google.common.collect.ComparisonChain;
/**
* @author radler
* Class Description ...
*/
public class Attribute implements Comparable<Attribute> {
private String type;
private String value;
public String getType() { return type; }
public void setType(String type) { this.type = type; }
public String getValue() { return value; }
public void setValue(String value) { this.value = value; }
@Override
public String toString() {
return "Attribute [type=" + type + ", value=" + value + "]";
}
@Override
public int compareTo(Attribute that) {
return ComparisonChain.start()
.compare(this.type, that.type)
.compare(this.value, that.value)
.result();
}
}
使用java8:
Comparator.comparing((Person p)->p.firstName)
.thenComparing(p->p.lastName)
.thenComparingInt(p->p.age);
如果你有访问方法:
Comparator.comparing(Person::getFirstName)
.thenComparing(Person::getLastName)
.thenComparingInt(Person::getAge);
如果一个类实现Comparable，那么这个比较器可以用在compareTo方法中:
@Override
public int compareTo(Person o){
return Comparator.comparing(Person::getFirstName)
.thenComparing(Person::getLastName)
.thenComparingInt(Person::getAge)
.compare(this, o);
}
