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);
    ...
}

当前回答

从Java 8开始,我们不需要直接使用Collections.sort()。List接口有一个默认的sort()方法:

List<User> users = Arrays.asList(user1,user2,user3);
users.sort( (u1, u2) -> { 
return u1.getFirstName.compareTo(u2.getFirstName());});

其他回答

我已经尝试了很多不同的解决方案,可在互联网上,但解决方案,为我是可在下面的链接。

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。

具有自然排序顺序的类(例如类Number)应该实现Comparable接口,而没有自然排序顺序的类(例如类Chair)应该提供Comparator(或匿名Comparator类)。

两个例子:

public class Number implements Comparable<Number> {
    private int value;

    public Number(int value) { this.value = value; }
    public int compareTo(Number anotherInstance) {
        return this.value - anotherInstance.value;
    }
}

public class Chair {
    private int weight;
    private int height;

    public Chair(int weight, int height) {
        this.weight = weight;
        this.height = height;
    }
    /* Omitting getters and setters */
}
class ChairWeightComparator implements Comparator<Chair> {
    public int compare(Chair chair1, Chair chair2) {
        return chair1.getWeight() - chair2.getWeight();
    }
}
class ChairHeightComparator implements Comparator<Chair> {
    public int compare(Chair chair1, Chair chair2) {
        return chair1.getHeight() - chair2.getHeight();
    }
}

用法:

List<Number> numbers = new ArrayList<Number>();
...
Collections.sort(numbers);

List<Chair> chairs = new ArrayList<Chair>();
// Sort by weight:
Collections.sort(chairs, new ChairWeightComparator());
// Sort by height:
Collections.sort(chairs, new ChairHeightComparator());

// You can also create anonymous comparators;
// Sort by color:
Collections.sort(chairs, new Comparator<Chair>() {
    public int compare(Chair chair1, Chair chair2) {
        ...
    }
});

函数和方法参考

的集合。sort方法可以使用传入的比较器对列表进行排序。该比较器可以使用Comparator. comparison方法实现,其中可以传递一个方法引用作为必要的函数。幸运的是,实际代码比这个描述简单得多。

对于Java 8:

Collections.sort(list, comparing(ClassName::getName));

or

Collections.sort(list, comparing(ClassName::getName).reversed());

另一种方法是

Collections.sort(list, comparing(ClassName::getName, Comparator.nullsLast(Comparator.naturalOrder())));
