[Swarm-Support] QSort and its compare function

[Steve Railsback]

I'm not getting QSort to work in Java. The 'compare' method is never 
called, so I suspect I have not given it the right name. (I can also 
provide a tiny test code but I suspect the problem is simple.)

Here is my compare function, in the agent class:

public int compare(StupidBug otherBug) {
        double otherBugSize = otherBug.getMySize();
        System.out.println("Hello from compare- this does not print");
        if (mySize > otherBugSize) return -1;
        else if (mySize < otherBugSize)      return 1;
        else return 0;
        }


Here is the sort method, in the model swarm:

public void sortBugs() {
        System.out.println("Hello from sortBugs- this prints");
        bugSorter.sortObjectsIn(bugList);
}

And I created the QSort this way:

                bugSorter = new QSortImpl (getZone());


Thanks,

Steve
