Package netscape.ldap
Interface LDAPEntryComparator
- All Known Implementing Classes:
LDAPCompareAttrNames
public interface LDAPEntryComparator
The
LDAPEntryComparator
interface represents the
algorithm used to sort the search results. This interface specifies
one method, isGreater
, which compares two entries and
determines the order in which the two entries should be sorted.
The netscape.ldap
package includes a class that
implements this interface. The LDAPCompareAttrNames
class represents a comparator that sorts the two entries alphabetically,
based on the value of one or more attributes.
When calling the sort
method of the
LDAPSearchResults
class, you need to specify
a class that implements the LDAPEntryComparator
interface.
