package org.apache.commons.io.comparator;

import org.apache.commons.io.IOCase;
Compare the names of two files for order (see File.getName()
). This comparator can be used to sort lists or arrays of files by their name either in a case-sensitive, case-insensitive or system dependent case sensitive way. A number of singleton instances are provided for the various case sensitivity options (using IOCase
) and the reverse of those options.
Example of a case-sensitive file name sort using the NAME_COMPARATOR
singleton instance:
List<File> list = ...
((AbstractFileComparator) NameFileComparator.NAME_COMPARATOR).sort(list);
Example of a reverse case-insensitive file name sort using the NAME_INSENSITIVE_REVERSE
singleton instance:
File[] array = ...
((AbstractFileComparator) NameFileComparator.NAME_INSENSITIVE_REVERSE).sort(array);
Since: 1.4
