Compares its two arguments for order.
int IComparator.Compare(Java.Lang.Object? o1, Java.Lang.Object? o2);abstract member Java.Util.IComparator.Compare : Java.Lang.Object * Java.Lang.Object -> int
override this.Java.Util.IComparator.Compare : Java.Lang.Object * Java.Lang.Object -> intParameters
- o1
- Object
the first object to be compared.
- o2
- Object
the second object to be compared.
Returns
a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as the first argument is less than, equal to, or greater than the second.
Implements
Remarks
Compares its two arguments for order. Returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as the first argument is less than, equal to, or greater than the second. The implementor must ensure that signum(compare(x, y)) == -signum(compare(y, x)) for all x and y. (This implies that compare(x, y) must throw an exception if and only if compare(y, x) throws an exception.) The implementor must also ensure that the relation is transitive: ((compare(x, y)>0) && (compare(y, z)>0)) implies compare(x, z)>0. Finally, the implementor must ensure that compare(x, y)==0 implies that signum(compare(x, z))==signum(compare(y, z)) for all z.
