Roydl.AlphaNumericComparer

Provides several types of IComparer that enables the alphanumeric comparison of two objects.

Default Comparer Alphanumeric Comparer
Alpha10000 Alpha111
Alpha111 Alpha1150
Alpha1150 Alpha10000
Foxtrot10000 Foxtrot111
Foxtrot111 Foxtrot1150
Foxtrot1150 Foxtrot10000
Oscar10000 Oscar111
Oscar111 Oscar1150
Oscar1150 Oscar10000

Usage:

// Can be used in the same way as all `IComparer`.
var comparer = new AlphaNumericComparer<string>();

// Sort any string collection, array, whatever.
var unsortedCollection = new string[] { /* some strings */ };
var sortedCollection = unsortedCollection.OrderBy(str => str, comparer);

// Use it for automatically sorted collections.
var sortedDictionary = new SortedDictionary<string, object>(comparer);
var sortedList = new SortedList<string, object>(comparer);

// Can even be used to sort `System.Windows.Forms` elements or the like.
// In case of `System.Windows.Forms.ListView` you just have to set
// the `ListViewItemSorter` field to automatically sort the list items.
myListView.ListViewItemSorter = new AlphaNumericComparer();
