DateDescendingComparator (JCMS API)

java.lang.Object
- com.jalios.util.DateComparator<T>
- - com.jalios.util.DateDescendingComparator<T>

Type Parameters:

T - if this implementation is used, T must be a sub class of java.util.Date

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.util.Comparator<T>
```
public class DateDescendingComparator<T extends java.util.Date>
extends DateComparator<T>
```
This class implements a Comparator which compares two Date objects in the descending order. It is the reverse comparator of DateComparator. Note: because it's a descending comparator, it behaves in the opposite way of what Comparator says.
