public int compare(Object o1,
Object o2)
compare of the
Comparator interface. o1 and o2 must be
Strings, otherwise this method throws a ClassCastException.
This method casts both objects to Strings and compares them using
compareTo or compareToIgnoreCase of the String class.
compare in interface Comparatoro1 - the first object to be compared.o2 - the second object to be compared.
o1
is less than, equal to, or greater than o2.public boolean isCaseSensitive()
