> Hi Folks , 
> Thanks for your good work done in Collection Framework .
> It would be good if you add functionality to sort the collection based on bean's property name . ( CollectionsUtils,java)
> For example i have List<Person> , i should be able to sort (ascending or desending ) based on person's salary (or) firstName (or) lastName (or) may be the combination of above 
> below is the equivalent in SQL 
> (select * from person order by salary,firtsName,lastName asc ) 
> method looks like 
> public static <T> void sort(List<T> list, boolean isAscending,String... beanPropertyName) {
> 		Collection<Comparator<T>> beanComparatorCollection = new ArrayList<Comparator<T>>(beanPropertyName.length);
> 		for(int i =0;i<beanPropertyName.length;i++)
> 		{
> 			beanComparatorCollection.add(new BeanComparator(beanPropertyName[i]));
> 		}
> 		Comparator<T> finalComparator = ComparatorUtils.chainedComparator(beanComparatorCollection);
> 		if (!isAscending) {
> 			finalComparator = new ReverseComparator(finalComparator);
> 		}
> 		Collections.sort(list, finalComparator);
> 	}
> Please let me know if you need any details , infact i able to submit patch too .
