I could have used Charles SortLibrary or I could have tried
to create my own (and much slower) sorting algorithm. What
I ended up doing was taking advantage of the "new"
SortWith() method (I think this was introduced in REALbasic 2005r1).
That's clever. I didn't even know there was a SortWith method! Perhaps
because when it came out, I read the LR's lame example case, which
is based
on using separate arrays to hold the different columns of a table
of data (a
strategy I couldn't ever see myself using, at least not until senile
dementia sets in), and promptly put SortWith out of my mind as
something
unlikely to ever be useful.
If we had community-extendable documentation (hint, hint) someone
could add
the infinitely more useful example case of using SortWith to sort
objects...
RB WikiLanguageReference, anyone? :)
