Sort generic list

by Marre 20. January 2011 13:39

To sort a generic list, the sort function must have something to compare. This is easily done like this:

List<ListItem> myList = new List<ListItem>();
myList.Sort((x, y) => string.Compare(x.Name, y.Name));

About

Supremelink is the name of where I collect my spare time projects. The idea is to learn more about new techniques and areas that I´m not usually is working with or that can be nice to know before future projects at work.

To see the benefits with new technologies and to achieve as much knowledge about those areas, I usually have a goal/project to work with.

This site run´s on BlogEngine.NET. It´s a full featured blog that is using XML as data source. No database is required.

Supreme Software

When I find software that I like and of whitch I can see the benefits to use, I write about it under the category "Supreme Software".

Beware of the soon coming updates in this category!
