19 | /** | |
20 | * In order to provide more generic behaviour, ITableColumn has no "column | |
21 | * value" concept. The comparator it returns compares two table rows, rather | |
22 | * than values specific to the column. | |
23 | * <p> | |
24 | * SimpleTableColumn introduces the concept of "column value" and allows one to | |
25 | * extract that "column value" from the row using the getColumnValue() method. | |
26 | * In practice comparisons are also typically done between these values rather | |
27 | * than the full row objects. | |
28 | * <p> | |
29 | * This comparator extracts the column values from the rows passed and uses the | |
30 | * provided comparator to compare the values. It therefore allows a comparator | |
31 | * designed for comparing column values to be quickly wrapped and used as a | |
32 | * comparator comparing rows, which is what ITableColumn is expected to return. | |
33 | * <p> | |
34 | * Example: | |
35 | * <p> | |
36 | * objColumn.setComparator(new ColumnComparator(objColumn, objBeanComparator)); | |
