1.sortedArrayUsingSelector
（按Key值大小对NSDictionary排序）
NSMutableArray *array = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj0", [NSNumber numberWithInt:0], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj5", [NSNumber numberWithInt:5], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj2", [NSNumber numberWithInt:2], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj3", [NSNumber numberWithInt:3], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj1", [NSNumber numberWithInt:1], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj4", [NSNumber numberWithInt:4], nil], nil];
NSArray *resultArray = [array sortedArrayUsingSelector:@selector(compare:)];
因为NSDictionary没有compare的排序比较方法，所以需要我们自己写
.h
@interface NSDictionary (compare)
{}
-(NSComparisonResult)compare:(NSDictionary *)otherDictionary;
@end
.m
@implementation NSDictionary (compare)
- (NSComparisonResult)compare: (NSDictionary *)otherDictionary
{
NSDictionary *tempDictionary = (NSDictionary *)self;
NSNumber *number1 = [[tempDictionary allKeys] objectAtIndex:0];
NSNumber *number2 = [[otherDictionary allKeys] objectAtIndex:0];
NSComparisonResult result = [number1 compare:number2];
return result == NSOrderedDescending; // 升序
// return result == NSOrderedAscending; // 降序
}
@end
2.sortedArrayUsingComparator
NSMutableArray *array = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj0", [NSNumber numberWithInt:0], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj5", [NSNumber numberWithInt:5], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj2", [NSNumber numberWithInt:2], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj3", [NSNumber numberWithInt:3], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj1", [NSNumber numberWithInt:1], nil],
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"Obj4", [NSNumber numberWithInt:4], nil], nil];
// NSArray *resultArray = [array sortedArrayUsingSelector:@selector(compare:)];
NSArray *resultArray = [array sortedArrayUsingComparator:^NSComparisonResult(id obj1, id obj2) {
NSNumber *number1 = [[obj1 allKeys] objectAtIndex:0];
NSNumber *number2 = [[obj2 allKeys] objectAtIndex:0];
NSComparisonResult result = [number1 compare:number2];
return result == NSOrderedDescending; // 升序
// return result == NSOrderedAscending; // 降序
}];
3.sortedArrayUsingDescriptors & sortUsingDescriptors
前者带返回值，是NSArray的方法，排好序的数组是返回值中的数组；
后者不带返回值，是NSMutableArray的方法，是对当前数组自己排序
.h
@interface Person : NSObject
{
NSString *_name;
NSInteger _age;
}
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSString *name;
@property (nonatomic, assign) NSInteger age;
@end
.m
@implementation Person
@synthesize name = _name;
@synthesize age = _age;
- (void)dealloc
{
[_name release];
[super dealloc];
}
@end
Person *person1 = [[Person alloc] init];
[person1 setName:@"ABC"];
[person1 setAge:24];
Person *person2 = [[Person alloc] init];
[person2 setName:@"ACB"];
[person2 setAge:22];
Person *person3 = [[Person alloc] init];
[person3 setName:@"ABD"];
[person3 setAge:33];
NSMutableArray *array = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:person1, person2, person3, nil];
[person1 release];
[person2 release];
[person3 release];
NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor = [NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"_age" ascending:YES];
NSArray *tempArray = [array sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:[NSArray arrayWithObject:sortDescriptor]];
for(NSInteger i = 0; i < [tempArray count]; i++)
{
NSLog(@"%@--------%d\n", [[tempArray objectAtIndex:i] name], [[tempArray objectAtIndex:i] age]);
}
// [array sortUsingDescriptors:[NSArray arrayWithObject:sortDescriptor]];
//
// for(NSInteger i = 0; i < [array count]; i++)
// {
// NSLog(@"%@--------%d\n", [[array objectAtIndex:i] name], [[array objectAtIndex:i] age]);
// }
sortDescriptorWithKey:@"_age",以age作为标准来做比较。
Person *person1 = [[Person alloc] init];
[person1 setName:@"ABCD"];
[person1 setAge:24];
Person *person2 = [[Person alloc] init];
[person2 setName:@"ACBD"];
[person2 setAge:22];
Person *person3 = [[Person alloc] init];
[person3 setName:@"ABDC"];
[person3 setAge:33];
Person *person4 = [[Person alloc] init];
[person4 setName:@"ACDB"];
[person4 setAge:22];
NSMutableArray *array = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:person1, person3, person4, person2, nil];
[person1 release];
[person2 release];
[person3 release];
[person4 release];
NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor1 = [NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"_age" ascending:YES];
NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor2 = [NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"_name" ascending:YES];
NSArray *tempArray = [array sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:sortDescriptor1, sortDescriptor2, nil]];
for(NSInteger i = 0; i < [tempArray count]; i++)
{
NSLog(@"%@--------%d\n", [[tempArray objectAtIndex:i] name], [[tempArray objectAtIndex:i] age]);
}
// [array sortUsingDescriptors:[NSArray arrayWithObject:sortDescriptor]];
//
// for(NSInteger i = 0; i < [array count]; i++)
// {
// NSLog(@"%@--------%d\n", [[array objectAtIndex:i] name], [[array objectAtIndex:i] age]);
// }
NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor1 = [NSSortDescriptorsortDescriptorWithKey:@"_age"ascending:YES];
NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor2 = [NSSortDescriptorsortDescriptorWithKey:@"_name"ascending:YES];
NSArray *tempArray = [array sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:[NSArrayarrayWithObjects:sortDescriptor1, sortDescriptor2,
nil]];
这里的NSArray中的第一元素表示首先按照这个元素的升序或者降序进行排序,对于有重复项的，再按照第二元素进行排序，依次进行类推
