Sorting of Vector which contains String

Question

Hi,
I have the following code which contains a vector. The vector has String elements. Now I want to know how to sort the elements in the Vector. I know that there is Collections.sort(). But I want to sort the elements needless it is uppercase or lowercase. The Collections Sort method will sort all uppercase strings first and then sort the lowercase ones. Here is the code which I`m doing: -
                      Vector v = new Vector();
               v.add("three");
               v.add("one");
               v.add("two");
               v.add("ABC");
               v.add("abc");
               v.add("AA2");
               v.add("ZXY");
               v.add("SuPer");
               v.add("4XDR");
               Collections.sort(v);
               System.out.println(v);I want to get the output something like this:
4XDR, AA2, ABC, abc,one,SuPer,three , two, ZXY

Answer 1

write a comparator and implement the compateTo method for your objects, so you get the output you need by calling
Collections.sort(List<T> list, Comparator<? super T> c)
