public int compare(java.lang.Object a, java.lang.Object b)
compare
in interface java.util.Comparator
a
- the first object to be compared. It is intended that this should normally be an instance
of AtomicValue, though this restriction is not enforced. If it is a StringValue, the
collator is used to compare the values, otherwise the value must implement the java.util.Comparable
interface.b
- the second object to be compared. This must be comparable with the first object: for
example, if one is a string, they must both be strings.java.lang.ClassCastException
- if the objects are not comparable
