groovy.lang.ObjectRange
All Implemented Interfaces:
Range, Iterable, Collection, List
public class ObjectRange extends AbstractList implements Range
Represents an inclusive list of objects from a value to a value using comparators.

Note: This class is similar to IntRange. If you make any changes to this class, you might consider making parallel changes to IntRange.

  • Constructor Details

    • ObjectRange

      public ObjectRange(Comparable from, Comparable to)
      Creates a new ObjectRange. Creates a reversed range if from < to.
      Parameters:
      from - the first value in the range.
      to - the last value in the range.

    • ObjectRange

      public ObjectRange(Comparable from, Comparable to, boolean reverse)
