我读过关于使用比较器排序数组列表的内容，但在所有的例子中，人们都使用了compareTo，根据一些研究，它是字符串的一种方法。
我想根据自定义对象的一个属性(Date对象)对其数组列表进行排序 (getStartDay())。通常我通过item1.getStartDate().before(item2.getStartDate())比较它们，所以我想知道我是否可以写一些像这样的东西:
public class CustomComparator {
public boolean compare(Object object1, Object object2) {
return object1.getStartDate().before(object2.getStartDate());
}
}
public class RandomName {
...
Collections.sort(Database.arrayList, new CustomComparator);
...
}

是的，你可以。比较项有两个选项，Comparable接口和Comparator接口。
这两个接口都允许不同的行为。Comparable允许您使对象的行为与您刚刚描述的String类似(实际上，String实现了Comparable)。第二个，Comparator，允许你做你要求做的事情。你会这样做:
Collections.sort(myArrayList, new MyComparator());
这将导致收集。方法来使用比较器的排序机制。如果数组列表中的对象实现了可比性，你可以这样做:
Collections.sort(myArrayList);
Collections类包含许多这些有用的常用工具。
1.8以来的新功能是一个List.sort()方法，而不是使用Collection.sort() 直接调用mylistcontainer。sort()
下面是一个演示List.sort()特性的代码片段:
List<Fruit> fruits = new ArrayList<Fruit>();
fruits.add(new Fruit("Kiwi","green",40));
fruits.add(new Fruit("Banana","yellow",100));
fruits.add(new Fruit("Apple","mixed green,red",120));
fruits.add(new Fruit("Cherry","red",10));
// a) using an existing compareto() method
fruits.sort((Fruit f1,Fruit f2) -> f1.getFruitName().compareTo(f2.getFruitName()));
System.out.println("Using String.compareTo(): " + fruits);
//Using String.compareTo(): [Apple is: mixed green,red, Banana is: yellow, Cherry is: red, Kiwi is: green]
// b) Using a comparable class
fruits.sort((Fruit f1,Fruit f2) -> f1.compareTo(f2));
System.out.println("Using a Comparable Fruit class (sort by color): " + fruits);
// Using a Comparable Fruit class (sort by color): [Kiwi is green, Apple is: mixed green,red, Cherry is: red, Banana is: yellow]
Fruit类是:
public class Fruit implements Comparable<Fruit>
{
private String name;
private String color;
private int quantity;
public Fruit(String name,String color,int quantity)
{ this.name = name; this.color = color; this.quantity = quantity; }
public String getFruitName() { return name; }
public String getColor() { return color; }
public int getQuantity() { return quantity; }
@Override public final int compareTo(Fruit f) // sorting the color
{
return this.color.compareTo(f.color);
}
@Override public String toString()
{
return (name + " is: " + color);
}
} // end of Fruit class
因为Date实现了Comparable，所以它有一个compareTo方法，就像String一样。
所以你的自定义比较器可以是这样的:
public class CustomComparator implements Comparator<MyObject> {
@Override
public int compare(MyObject o1, MyObject o2) {
return o1.getStartDate().compareTo(o2.getStartDate());
}
}
compare()方法必须返回一个int值，因此不能像计划的那样直接返回一个布尔值。
你的排序代码就像你写的那样:
Collections.sort(Database.arrayList, new CustomComparator());
如果你不需要重用你的比较器，一种稍短的方法是把它写成一个内联匿名类:
Collections.sort(Database.arrayList, new Comparator<MyObject>() {
@Override
public int compare(MyObject o1, MyObject o2) {
return o1.getStartDate().compareTo(o2.getStartDate());
}
});
因为java 8
现在你可以用比较器的lambda表达式来写最后一个例子:
Collections.sort(Database.arrayList,
(o1, o2) -> o1.getStartDate().compareTo(o2.getStartDate()));
List有一个sort(Comparator)方法，所以你可以进一步缩短:
Database.arrayList.sort((o1, o2) -> o1.getStartDate().compareTo(o2.getStartDate()));
这是一个非常常见的习惯用法，因此有一个内置方法可以为具有Comparable键的类生成Comparator:
Database.arrayList.sort(Comparator.comparing(MyObject::getStartDate));
所有这些都是等价的形式。
使用Java 8可以在一行中使用Comparator. comparison()定义比较器
使用以下任何一种方式:
选项1:
listToBeSorted.sort(Comparator.comparing(CustomObject::getStartDate));
选项2:
Collections.sort(listToBeSorted, Comparator.comparing(CustomObject::getStartDate));
