Sorting a List of objects in C#

public class CarSpecs
{

    public CarSpecs()
    {
    }

    private String _CarName;
    public String CarName
    {
        get { return _CarName; }
        set { _CarName = value; }
    }



    private String _CarMaker;
    public String CarMaker
    {
       get { return _CarMaker;}
       set { _CarMaker = value; }
    }


    private DateTime _CreationDate;
    public DateTime CreationDate
    {
        get { return _CreationDate; }
        set { _CreationDate = value; }
    }
}

This is a list and I am trying to figure out an efficient way to sort this list List<CarSpecs> CarList, containing 6(or any integer amount) Cars, by the Car Make Date. I was going to do Bubble sort, but will that work? Any Help?

Thanks

回答1:

CarList = CarList.OrderBy( x => x.CreationDate ).ToList();

First, using the shorthand syntax introduced in .Net 3.5, you could make this class definition a lot shorter:

public class CarSpecs
{
    public CarSpecs() { }

    public String CarName { get; set;
    public String CarMaker { get; set; }
    public DateTime CreationDate { get; set; }
}

This will compile into the exact same class as the one you have above.

Secondly, you can easily sort them using Lambda expressions or LINQ:

var linq = (from CarSpecs c in CarList
            orderby c.CreationDate ascending
            select c) as List<CarList>;

var lambda = CarList.OrderBy(c => c.CreationDate).ToList();

Don't write your own sorting algorithm. .NET has an Array.Sort() method specifically for things such as this.

Since you have a custom object, you need to define how to compare 2 objects so the sorting algorithm knows how to sort them. You can do this 1 of 2 ways:

1. Make your CarSpecs class implement the IComparable interface
2. Create a class that implements IComparer and pass that in as a parameter to Array.Sort() along with your array.

回答4:

There are already existing sorting algorithms in the BCL - Array.Sort() and List.Sort(). Implement an IComparer class that determines the sort order using the CreationDate, then put all the objects into an array or list and call the appropriate Sort() method
