sort() with alphaNumCmp

Ruben VAZQUEZ
Ruben VAZQUEZ over 13 years ago
Does the sort function only work with comparison functions that return values of nil or non nil? I need to sort a list with NET names that are alpha numeric. So I want to use alphaNumCmp as the second argument to sort. But alphaNumCmp returns 1, 0, or -1.

    You are correct. Try this: sort(myList, lambda((str1, str2), when(minusp(alphaNumCmp(str1, str2)), t)))
