Namespace: Wintellect.PowerCollections
Assembly: PowerCollections (in PowerCollections.dll)

Syntax

C#
public static void StableSortInPlace<T>( IList<T> list ) where T : IComparable<T>

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Shared Sub StableSortInPlace(Of T As IComparable(Of T)) ( _ list As IList(Of T) _ )

Visual C++
public: generic<typename T> where T : IComparable<T> static void StableSortInPlace ( IList<T>^ list )

Parameters

list: IList<(Of <T>)>
The list or array to sort.

Type Parameters

T

Remarks

Values are compared by using the IComparable<T> interfaces implementation on the type T.

Although arrays cast to IList<T> are normally read-only, this method will work correctly and modify an array passed as list.
