All Implemented Interfaces:

public class StringCompare
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.util.Comparator

This class was used in the 1.1-version of iText (by Volker Richert). Paulo Soares suggested I should add it to the original library, so that in the future it would be easier to port it to the JDK1.1.x.
