◆ gos_sort_compare_callback_t

typedef int() gos_sort_compare_callback_t(const void *lhs, const void *rhs)

Callback function for comparing an two items while sorting.

Taking two pointers as arguments: the first is always key, and the second points to an element of the array (both type-casted to const void*).

The function shall return (in a stable and transitive manner):

  • <0 The element pointed to by `lhs` goes before the element pointed to by `rhs`
  • 0 The element pointed to by `lhs` is equivalent to the element pointed to by `rhs`
  • >0 The element pointed to by lhs goes after the element pointed to by rhs
