T - the type of objects being comparedpublic class InstanceComparator<T> extends Object implements Comparator<T>
Numbers such that Longs occur before Integers.
Only the specified instanceOrder classes are considered during comparison.
If two objects are both instances of the ordered type this comparator will return a
0. Consider combining with a CompoundComparator if additional sorting
is required.
