Enum Class NaturalOrderStringComparator

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<NaturalOrderStringComparator>
com.atlassian.jira.util.NaturalOrderStringComparator
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<NaturalOrderStringComparator>, Constable, Comparator<String>

public enum NaturalOrderStringComparator extends Enum<NaturalOrderStringComparator> implements Comparator<String>
Natural Order String Comparator compares Strings in a more "human friendly" way. For instance, in a natural order String comparator, "z9.txt" comes before "z10.txt". The whitespaces are also stripped so that "z9.txt" will come before "z 10.txt". The comparator is not locale-dependent.
