List.Sort(...)

With generic in C# 2.0 life just become so much easier. Today I was impressed by the ease with which you can now sort a list of T.

Code below shows how with one method you can now implement a sort. This used to be much more complex!

public class Person
{
    public Person(string name)
    {
        this.Name = name;
    }

    public string Name;
}

class Demo
{
    public List GetAllPersons()
    {
        List result = new List();
        result.Add(new Person("Mark"));
        result.Add(new Person("Dennis"));
        result.Add(new Person("Duncan"));
        result.Add(new Person("Jeremy"));
        result.Sort(SortByName);
        return result;
    }

    public static int SortByName( Person x, Person y )
    {
        return x.Name.CompareTo(y.Name);
    }
}
