Involved Source Files Package fmtsort provides a general stable ordering mechanism for maps, on behalf of the fmt and text/template packages. It is not guaranteed to be efficient and works only for types that are valid map keys.
Package-Level Type Names (only one, which is exported)
/* sort exporteds by: | */
SortedMap represents a map's keys and values. The keys and values are aligned in index order: Value[i] is the value in the map corresponding to Key[i]. Key []reflect.Value Value []reflect.Value (*SortedMap) Len() int (*SortedMap) Less(i, j int) bool (*SortedMap) Swap(i, j int) *SortedMap : sort.Interface func Sort(mapValue reflect.Value) *SortedMap
Package-Level Functions (total 5, in which 1 is exported)
Sort accepts a map and returns a SortedMap that has the same keys and values but in a stable sorted order according to the keys, modulo issues raised by unorderable key values such as NaNs. The ordering rules are more general than with Go's < operator: - when applicable, nil compares low - ints, floats, and strings order by < - NaN compares less than non-NaN floats - bool compares false before true - complex compares real, then imag - pointers compare by machine address - channel values compare by machine address - structs compare each field in turn - arrays compare each element in turn. Otherwise identical arrays compare by length. - interface values compare first by reflect.Type describing the concrete type and then by concrete value as described in the previous rules.
