-/**
- * Interface for objects that specify an ordering between objects. The ordering
- * should be <em>total</em>, such that any two objects of the correct type
- * can be compared, and the comparison is reflexive, anti-symmetric, and
- * transitive. It is also recommended that the comparator be <em>consistent
- * with equals</em>, although this is not a strict requirement. A relation
- * is consistent with equals if these two statements always have the same
- * results (if no exceptions occur):<br>
- * <code>compare((Object) e1, (Object) e2) == 0</code> and
- * <code>e1.equals((Object) e2)</code><br>
- * Comparators that violate consistency with equals may cause strange behavior
- * in sorted lists and sets. For example, a case-sensitive dictionary order
- * comparison of Strings is consistent with equals, but if it is
- * case-insensitive it is not, because "abc" and "ABC" compare as equal even
- * though "abc".equals("ABC") returns false.
- * <P>
- * In general, Comparators should be Serializable, because when they are passed
- * to Serializable data structures such as SortedMap or SortedSet, the entire
- * data structure will only serialize correctly if the comparator is
- * Serializable.
