Interface UnboxedComparable<V extends java.io.Serializable & java.lang.Comparable>

All Superinterfaces:

Unboxed<V>

All Known Implementing Classes:

UnboxedFloat, UnboxedHalfDouble, UnboxedInt

public interface UnboxedComparable<V extends java.io.Serializable & java.lang.Comparable>
extends Unboxed<V>

An unboxed which is Comparable, and for which the comparison can be performed directly on the unboxed form.

Method Summary

int	compare(byte[] buf1, int ofs1, byte[] buf2, int ofs2) Same as Comparable.compare(), but operates directly on serialized representation
