Sorting list having itemBean by date?

问题

how to sort a list by date in android

List<ItemBean> listIB = new ArrayList<ItemBean>();
for(int i=0; i<DispLibActivity.itemListVect.size(); i++)
{
    listIB.add(DispLibActivity.itemListVect.get(i));
}

ItemBean class have a member date

public class ItemBean implements Parcelable{
    String item_id, item_title, image_url, link_url, description, publish_date,
        in_app_date, sub_section_id, type, duration, orig_url, sync;
    ....
    ....
}

I want to sort list "listIB" with its member "publish_date"

回答1:

use SimpleDateFormat to parse the date string, get the Date object and confront the time in milliseconds in a comparator.
