public class CollectableCompare
extends Object
implements Comparator
Class CollectableCompare implements the Comparator interface to match, as best we can in Java, the identity comparison semantics of the RWCollectable::compareTo() in Tools.h++. The objects are compared via their hash codes, which, of course, are not guaranteed to be unique for unique objects. Thus, the primary utility of this class is to have something to return from the DefineCollectable.getComparator() method when mapping Java classes for which there are not more useful comparators available.
