Re: Sorting Question

I suggest qsort().  You will need to write your own callback procedure. In 
that procedure, break the IP address up into it's components, either put 
them into numeric fields or add your leading zeros, and decide which is 
higher.  There examples all over the web and in the archives to get you on 
your way.

Sorting Question








I have the need to sort a file of IP addresses on a display as if they had 
a leading zero. For example they want to see

 

192.44.208.119 
 192.44.208.12 
 192.44.208.120 
 

to be sorted as

 

192.44.208.12 
192.44.208.119 
192.44.208.120 
 

as if the .12 had a leading zero. This is a character field. Any 
suggestions? Thanks in advance.

 

Jon
