Method Detail

### compare

    public int compare(byte[] b1,
                       int s1,
                       int l1,
                       byte[] b2,
                       int s2,
                       int l2)

  Description copied from class: `WritableComparator`
  Optimization hook. Override this to make SequenceFile.Sorter's scream.

  The default implementation reads the data into two `WritableComparable`s (using `Writable.readFields(DataInput)`, then calls `WritableComparator.compare(WritableComparable,WritableComparable)`.

  Specified by:
    `compare` in interface `RawComparator`
  Overrides:
    `compare` in class `WritableComparator`
