我想做的事情似乎很简单,但我在网上找不到任何答案。我有一个对象的NSMutableArray,假设它们是Person对象。我想对NSMutableArray按Person排序。birthDate是一个NSDate。

我认为这与这个方法有关:

NSArray *sortedArray = [drinkDetails sortedArrayUsingSelector:@selector(???)];

在Java中,我将使我的对象实现Comparable,或使用集合。使用内联自定义比较器排序…在Objective-C中怎么做呢?

在Georg Schölly的第二个答案中有一个缺失的步骤,但它可以正常工作。

NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor;
sortDescriptor = [[[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"birthDate"
                                              ascending:YES] autorelease];
NSArray *sortDescriptors = [NSArray arrayWithObject:sortDescriptor];
NSArray *sortedArray;
sortedArray = [drinkDetails sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:sortDescriptors];

//添加's',因为我复制和粘贴时浪费了时间,在sortedArrayUsingDescriptors中没有's'就失败了

  let sortedUsers = users.sorted {
    $0.firstName < $1.firstName
 }
NSMutableArray *stockHoldingCompanies = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:fortune1stock,fortune2stock,fortune3stock,fortune4stock,fortune5stock,fortune6stock , nil];

NSSortDescriptor *sortOrder = [NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"companyName" ascending:NO];

[stockHoldingCompanies sortUsingDescriptors:[NSArray arrayWithObject:sortOrder]];

NSEnumerator *enumerator = [stockHoldingCompanies objectEnumerator];

ForeignStockHolding *stockHoldingCompany;

NSLog(@"Fortune 6 companies sorted by Company Name");

    while (stockHoldingCompany = [enumerator nextObject]) {
        NSLog(@"===============================");
        NSLog(@"CompanyName:%@",stockHoldingCompany.companyName);
        NSLog(@"Purchase Share Price:%.2f",stockHoldingCompany.purchaseSharePrice);
        NSLog(@"Current Share Price: %.2f",stockHoldingCompany.currentSharePrice);
        NSLog(@"Number of Shares: %i",stockHoldingCompany.numberOfShares);
        NSLog(@"Cost in Dollars: %.2f",[stockHoldingCompany costInDollars]);
        NSLog(@"Value in Dollars : %.2f",[stockHoldingCompany valueInDollars]);
    }
    NSLog(@"===============================");

使用NSSortDescriptor对自定义对象的NSMutableArray进行排序

 NSSortDescriptor *sortingDescriptor;
 sortingDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"birthDate"
                                       ascending:YES];
 NSArray *sortArray = [drinkDetails sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:@[sortDescriptor]];

您可以使用以下通用方法来实现您的目的。这应该能解决你的问题。

//Called method
-(NSMutableArray*)sortArrayList:(NSMutableArray*)arrDeviceList filterKeyName:(NSString*)sortKeyName ascending:(BOOL)isAscending{
    NSSortDescriptor *sorter = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:sortKeyName ascending:isAscending];
    [arrDeviceList sortUsingDescriptors:[NSArray arrayWithObject:sorter]];
    return arrDeviceList;
}

//Calling method
[self sortArrayList:arrSomeList filterKeyName:@"anything like date,name etc" ascending:YES];

你的Person对象需要实现一个方法,比如compare:它接受另一个Person对象,并根据两个对象之间的关系返回NSComparisonResult。

然后你会调用sortedArrayUsingSelector: with @selector(compare:),这应该就完成了。

还有其他方法,但据我所知,还没有类似可比性接口的cocoa。使用sortedArrayUsingSelector:可能是最简单的方法。
