Java的8的推出流和有用的静态 / 默认的方法比较接口可以很容易地根据个人的领域两个对象比较“值，而不需要实现一个比较（T，T）在其对象的类方法被比较。

我将使用一个简单的Song类来帮助演示这一点，接下来显示其Song.java代码清单。

Song.java

package dustin.examples.jdk8;/*** Simple class encapsulating details related to a song* and intended to be used for demonstration of JDK 8.*/
public class Song
{/** Song title. */private final String title;/** Album on which song was originally included. */private final String album;/** Song's artist. */private final String artist;/** Year song was released. */private final int year;/*** Constructor accepting this instance's title, artist, and release year.** @param newTitle Title of song.* @param newAlbum Album on which song was originally included.* @param newArtist Artist behind this song.* @param newYear Year song was released.*/public Song(final String newTitle, final String newAlbum,final String newArtist, final int newYear){title = newTitle;album = newAlbum;artist = newArtist;year = newYear;}public String getTitle(){return title;}public String getAlbum(){return album;}public String getArtist(){return artist;}public int getYear(){return year;}@Overridepublic String toString(){return "'" + title + "' (" + year + ") from '" + album + "' by " + artist;}
}

刚刚显示了清单的Song类缺少一个compare方法，但是我们仍然可以很容易地在JDK 8中比较该类的实例。 根据刚刚显示的Song的类定义，以下代码可用于根据歌曲发行年份，歌手和专辑的顺序对歌曲实例List进行排序。

按年份，艺术家和专辑对歌曲排序（按此顺序）

/*** Returns a sorted version of the provided List of Songs that is* sorted first by year of song's release, then sorted by artist,* and then sorted by album.** @param songsToSort Songs to be sorted.* @return Songs sorted, in this order, by year, artist, and album.*/
private static List<Song> sortedSongsByYearArtistAlbum(final List<Song> songsToSort)
{return songsToSort.stream().sorted(Comparator.comparingInt(Song::getYear).thenComparing(Song::getArtist).thenComparing(Song::getAlbum)).collect(Collectors.toList());
}

如果我静态地导入 Comparator和Collectors ，则上面的代码清单将稍微冗长一些，但是将这些接口和类名称包括在清单中仍然很简洁，对于该主题的入门博客文章可能更有用。

在上面的代码清单中， static default方法Comparator.comparingInt和Comparator.thenComparing用于按年份，然后是艺术家，最后是唱片，对与基础List关联的Song流进行排序。 该代码具有很高的可读性，并且可以基于任意单独的访问器方法进行对象比较（以及对这些实例进行排序），而无需显式指定的Comparator （用于每个比较的访问器结果的自然排序顺序）。 请注意，如果需要显式Comparator ，则可以通过接受Comparator的同名重载方法将其提供给这些static default方法。

下一个代码清单是整个演示类。 它包括刚刚显示的方法，还显示了由未排序的歌曲List构成的人为示例。

FineGrainSortingDemo.java

package dustin.examples.jdk8;import static java.lang.System.out;import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Comparator;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;/*** Demonstration of easy fine-grained sorting in JDK 8 via* stream support for sorting and Comparator's static and* default method implementations.*/
public class FineGrainSortingDemo
{/*** Construct List of {@code Song}s.* * @return Instances of {@code Song}.*/private static List<Song> generateSongs(){final ArrayList<Song> songs = new ArrayList<>();songs.add(new Song("Photograph","Pyromania","Def Leppard",1983));songs.add(new Song("Hysteria","Hysteria","Def Leppard",1987));songs.add(new Song("Shout","Songs from the Big Chair","Tears for Fears",1984));songs.add(new Song("Everybody Wants to Rule the World","Songs from the Big Chair","Tears for Fears",1985));songs.add(new Song("Head Over Heels","Songs from the Big Chair","Tears for Fears",1985));songs.add(new Song("Enter Sandman","Metallica","Metallica",1991));songs.add(new Song("Money for Nothing","Brothers in Arms","Dire Straits",1985));songs.add(new Song("Don't You (Forget About Me)","A Brass Band in African Chimes","Simple Minds",1985));return songs;}/*** Returns a sorted version of the provided List of Songs that is* sorted first by year of song's release, then sorted by artist,* and then sorted by album.** @param songsToSort Songs to be sorted.* @return Songs sorted, in this order, by year, artist, and album.*/private static List<Song> sortedSongsByYearArtistAlbum(final List<Song> songsToSort){return songsToSort.stream().sorted(Comparator.comparingInt(Song::getYear).thenComparing(Song::getArtist).thenComparing(Song::getAlbum)).collect(Collectors.toList());}/*** Demonstrate fine-grained sorting in JDK 8.** @param arguments Command-line arguments; none expected.*/public static void main(final String[] arguments){final List<Song> songs = generateSongs();final List<Song> sortedSongs = sortedSongsByYearArtistAlbum(songs);out.println("Original Songs:");songs.stream().forEach(song -> out.println("\t" + song));out.println("Sorted Songs");sortedSongs.forEach(song -> out.println("\t" + song));}
}

接下来显示运行上述代码的输出，并在使用排序代码后列出新排序的Song 。 值得注意的是，此stream.sorted()操作不会更改原始List （它作用于流而不是List ）。

JDK 8在接口中引入了流以及默认方法和静态方法（在这种情况下，尤其是在Comparator上），可以轻松地按期望的顺序逐个字段地比较两个对象，而无需使用任何显式的Comparator而是预先构建了static default方法。 Comparator界面（如果要比较的字段具有所需的自然顺序）。
