sorting a db list by db~>cellName

isgdude over 16 years ago

I have a list of hierarchical schematic db objects and would like to sort them by cellName.

dblist = ( db:00001 db:00002 db:00003 )

dblist~>cellName = ( "BBBB" "CCCC" "AAAA" )

I would like this returned:

( db:00003 db:00001 db:00002)

Thanks

dbList = sort(dbList lambda((a b) alphalessp(a~>cellName b~>cellName)))
Essentially the sort command accepts a function as the second argument. The function takes two arguments and returns t or nil. The preceding example could also be written this way:
dbList = sort(dbList 'mySort)
procedure(mySort(a b)
alphalessp(a~>cellName b~>cellName)
)
