Method Detail
-
begin
public static Comparison begin()
Begins a new comparison.- Returns:
- the comparison.
-
beginAllowNull
public static Comparison beginAllowNull()
Begins a new comparison, but allows fornull
values to be passed.If the first value is
null
and the second value isnon-null
, the comparison will return -1. If the first value isnon-null
and the second value isnull
, the comparison will return 1. If both values arenull
0 is returned.- Returns:
- the comparison.
-
compare
public abstract Comparison compare(Comparable<?> left, Comparable<?> right)
Compares the left comparable to the right as specified by theComparable.compareTo(Object)
interface.- Parameters:
left
- the object to compare to the right.right
- the object compared to the left.- Returns:
- the the same instance if the objects are equal, otherwise a comparison that will return a defined value.
-
compare
public abstract <T> Comparison compare(T left, T right, Comparator<T> comparator)
Compares the left object to the right object as specified by theComparator.compare(Object, Object)
interface.- Type Parameters:
T
- the type of the object to the compared.- Parameters:
left
- the object to compare to the right.right
- the object compared to the left.comparator
- the comparator used to compare the objects.- Returns:
- the the same instance if the objects are equal, otherwise a comparison that will return a defined value.
-
compare
public Comparison compare(int left, int right)
Compares the left integer to the right integer.- Parameters:
left
- the integer to compare to the right.right
- the integer compared to the left.- Returns:
- the the same instance if the integers are equal, otherwise a comparison that will return a defined value.
-
compare
public Comparison compare(long left, long right)
Compares the left long to the right long.- Parameters:
left
- the long to compare to the right.right
- the long compared to the left.- Returns:
- the the same instance if the longs are equal, otherwise a comparison that will return a defined value.
-
compare
public Comparison compare(float left, float right)
Compares the left float to the float integer.- Parameters:
left
- the float to compare to the right.right
- the float compared to the left.- Returns:
- the the same instance if the floats are equal, otherwise a comparison that will return a defined value.
-
compare
public Comparison compare(double left, double right)
Compares the left double to the double integer.- Parameters:
left
- the double to compare to the right.right
- the double compared to the left.- Returns:
- the the same instance if the doubles are equal, otherwise a comparison that will return a defined value.
-
compare
public Comparison compare(boolean left, boolean right)
Compares the left boolean to the double boolean.- Parameters:
left
- the boolean to compare to the right.right
- the boolean compared to the left.- Returns:
- the the same instance if the booleans are equal, otherwise a comparison that will return a defined value.
-
result
public int result()
Ends the comparison and returns 0 if all comparisons were equal, -1 if the any of the left comparisons were less than the right comparisons or 1 if any of the right comparisons were less than the left.- Returns:
- zero if equal, otherwise the a value with the same sign as the first non-equal comparison.
