Sorts the specified list according to the order induced by the
specified comparator. All elements in the list must be mutually
comparable using the specified comparator (that is,
c.compare(e1, e2)
must not throw a ClassCastException
for any elements e1
and e2
in the list).
This sort is guaranteed to be stable: equal elements will not be reordered as a result of the sort.
The specified list must be modifiable, but need not be resizable.
<T> | the class of the objects in the list | |
list | the list to be sorted. | |
c | the comparator to determine the order of the list. A
null value indicates that the elements' natural
ordering should be used. |
ClassCastException | if the list contains elements that are not mutually comparable using the specified comparator. | |
UnsupportedOperationException | if the specified list's
list-iterator does not support the set operation. | |
IllegalArgumentException | (optional) if the comparator is
found to violate the Comparator contract |
List.sort(Comparator)
@implNote
This implementation defers to the List.sort(Comparator)
method using the specified list and comparator.
