Method Detail

getInstance

public static Comparer getInstance()

Returns a IntegerComparer object.

lessThan

public final boolean lessThan(java.lang.Object leftOperand,
                              java.lang.Object rightOperand)
                       throws java.lang.ClassCastException

Returns true if the leftOperand is less than the rightOperand.

Throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException - If operand objects are not Number objects. ClassCastException is a RuntimeException, so compiler does not force you to catch this exception.

Overrides:

greaterThan

public final boolean greaterThan(java.lang.Object leftOperand,
                                 java.lang.Object rightOperand)
                          throws java.lang.ClassCastException

Returns true if the leftOperand is greater than the rightOperand.

Throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException - If operand objects are not Number objects. ClassCastException is a RuntimeException, so compiler does not force you to catch this exception.

Overrides:
