TModelInstanceDetailsComparator

public TModelInstanceDetailsComparator(String TModelKey,
                                       boolean number,
                                       boolean XMLdate,
                                       boolean XMLduration)

                                       IllegalArgumentException

Parameters:

TModelKey - for TModelInstanceInfo to use for comparison

number - if true, the InstanceDetails.InstanceParms will be treated like a number

XMLdate - if true, the InstanceDetails.InstanceParms will be treated like a XML Date

XMLduration - if true, the InstanceDetails.InstanceParms will be treated like a XML Gregorian Calendar

Throws:

DatatypeConfigurationException

IllegalArgumentException

Method Detail

compare

public int compare(TModelInstanceDetails lhs,
                   TModelInstanceDetails rhs)
            throws IllegalArgumentException,
                   NumberFormatException,
                   NullPointerException,
                   ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

Compares two non-null instances of TModelInstanceDetails by only comparing the field designated from the constructor. It will also cast or parse TModelInstanceDetails[i].InstanceDetails[k].InstanceParms to the selected data type double, XMLGregorgian or Duration, using that as a basis for comparison. If a parsing error occurs, an exception will be thrown.

Parameters:

lhs -

rhs -

Returns:

less than 0 if lhs < rhs, greater than 0 if lhs > rhs.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the tModel key to search for is missing, if either sides are null

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - if the values were found but could not be compared

NumberFormatException

NullPointerException
