Synopsis

SortKey is a helper class for the Sort class. It holds the following information about a sort key:

• Address of the data array containing the sort key;
• A CountedPtr to a comparison object to be used (of a class derived from the abstract base class BaseCompare).
• Increment for the next data point -- this lets you specify a stride for keys embedded in a struct;
• Sort order -- ascending or descending;

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

casacore::SortKey::SortKey	(	const void *	data,
		const CountedPtr< BaseCompare > &	,
		uInt	increment,
		int	order
	)

Define a sort key in a given data array using the indicated comparison object, stride and sort order.

casacore::SortKey::SortKey

Member Function Documentation

SortKey& casacore::SortKey::operator=

(

const SortKey &

)

Assignment (copy semantics).

int casacore::SortKey::order

(

)

const [inline]

Get the sort order.

References order_p.

uInt casacore::SortKey::tryGenSort	(	Vector< uInt > &	indexVector,
		uInt	nrrec,
		int	opt
	)			const

Try if GenSort can be used for this single key.

If it succeeds, it returns the resulting number of elements. Otherwise it returns 0.
