This is an interesting hint! Michael, do you mean that this
collation order automatically sorts the following "correctly"
(defined as: treat numeric parts as numeric)?
root[1]/node[12]
root[1]/node[6]
root[1]/node[11]
root[1]/node[0045]
into:
root[1]/node[6]
root[1]/node[11]
root[1]/node[12]
root[1]/node[0045]
Yes.
Wow, I'm impressed. I guess I should read the docs better ;).
I use a generalized sorting routine that does something like tokenize
by numeric values and then sort by appending zeros and concatenating it
with the rest into a string (much like my earlier solution in this
thread, but more generic). Time to throw that piece of code away ;)
