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?
使用NSComparator进行排序
如果我们想对自定义对象进行排序,我们需要提供NSComparator,它用于比较自定义对象。该块返回一个NSComparisonResult值来表示两个对象的排序。为了对整个数组进行排序,NSComparator的用法如下。
NSArray *sortedArray = [employeesArray sortedArrayUsingComparator:^NSComparisonResult(Employee *e1, Employee *e2){
return [e1.firstname compare:e2.firstname];
}];
使用NSSortDescriptor进行排序
让我们假设,作为一个例子,我们有一个包含自定义类实例的数组,Employee具有属性firstname, lastname和age。下面的例子说明了如何创建一个NSSortDescriptor,该NSSortDescriptor可用于按年龄键升序对数组内容进行排序。
NSSortDescriptor *ageDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"age" ascending:YES];
NSArray *sortDescriptors = @[ageDescriptor];
NSArray *sortedArray = [employeesArray sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:sortDescriptors];
使用自定义比较进行排序
名称是字符串,当您对字符串进行排序以呈现给用户时,您应该始终使用本地化比较。通常您还希望执行不区分大小写的比较。下面是一个示例,使用(localizedStandardCompare:)按姓氏和名字对数组进行排序。
NSSortDescriptor *lastNameDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc]
initWithKey:@"lastName" ascending:YES selector:@selector(localizedStandardCompare:)];
NSSortDescriptor * firstNameDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc]
initWithKey:@"firstName" ascending:YES selector:@selector(localizedStandardCompare:)];
NSArray *sortDescriptors = @[lastNameDescriptor, firstNameDescriptor];
NSArray *sortedArray = [employeesArray sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:sortDescriptors];

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]);
}
