class StringComparer [public] ¶

Compares strings using the specified case and cultural comparision rules.

this(Culture culture, bool ignoreCase) [public] ¶

Creates an instance that compares strings using the rules of the specified culture.

Parameters:

culture	A Culture instance whose rules are used to compare strings.
ignoreCase	true to perform case-insensitive comparisons; false to perform case-sensitive comparisions.

int compare(const(char)[] strA, const(char)[] strB) [public] ¶

Compares two strings and returns the sort order.

Returns:

-1 is strA is less than strB; 0 if strA is equal to strB; 1 if strA is greater than strB.

Parameters:

strA	A string to compare to strB.
strB	A string to compare to strA.

bool equals(const(char)[] strA, const(char)[] strB) [public] ¶

Indicates whether the two strings are equal.

Returns:

true if strA and strB are equal; otherwise, false.

Parameters:

strA	A string to compare to strB.
strB	A string to compare to strA.

StringComparer currentCulture() [public, static] ¶

Property. Retrieves an instance that performs case-sensitive comparisons using the rules of the current culture.

Returns:

A new StringComparer instance.

StringComparer currentCultureIgnoreCase() [public, static] ¶

Property. Retrieves an instance that performs case-insensitive comparisons using the rules of the current culture.

Returns:

A new StringComparer instance.

StringComparer invariantCulture() [public, static] ¶

Property. Retrieves an instance that performs case-sensitive comparisons using the rules of the invariant culture.

Returns:

A new StringComparer instance.

StringComparer invariantCultureIgnoreCase() [public, static] ¶

Property. Retrieves an instance that performs case-insensitive comparisons using the rules of the invariant culture.

Returns:

A new StringComparer instance.

alias int delegate(const(char)[], const(char)[]) StringComparison ¶

Delegate. Represents the method that will handle the string comparison.

Remarks:

The delegate has the signature int delegate(const(char)[], const(char)[]).

class StringSorter [public] ¶

Sorts strings according to the rules of the specified culture.

this(StringComparer comparer = null) [public] ¶

Creates an instance using the specified StringComparer.

Parameters:

comparer

The StringComparer to use when comparing strings. Optional.

this(StringComparison comparison) [public] ¶

Creates an instance using the specified delegate.

Parameters:

comparison

The delegate to use when comparing strings.

Remarks:

The comparison parameter must have the same signature as StringComparison.

inout(void) sort(ref inout(char)[][] array) [public] ¶

Sorts all the elements in an array.

Parameters:

array

The array of strings to _sort.

inout(void) sort(ref inout(char)[][] array, size_t index, size_t count) [public] ¶

Sorts a range of the elements in an array.

Parameters:

array	The array of strings to _sort.
index	The starting index of the range.
count	The number of elements in the range.

StringSorter currentCulture() [public, @property, static] ¶

Property. Retrieves an instance that performs a case-sensitive sort using the rules of the current culture.

Returns:

A StringSorter instance.

StringSorter currentCultureIgnoreCase() [public, @property, static] ¶

Property. Retrieves an instance that performs a case-insensitive sort using the rules of the current culture.

Returns:

A StringSorter instance.

StringSorter invariantCulture() [public, static] ¶

Property. Retrieves an instance that performs a case-sensitive sort using the rules of the invariant culture.

Returns:

A StringSorter instance.

StringSorter invariantCultureIgnoreCase() [public, static] ¶

Property. Retrieves an instance that performs a case-insensitive sort using the rules of the invariant culture.

Returns:

A StringSorter instance.
