Java 8 Lambda Comparator

Lets se how we can sort the object by using java 8 lambda comparator. For this let take a Employee class.

public class Employee {
    private String name;
    private int salary;
 
    // standard constructors, getters/setters, equals and hashcode
}

1. Classic sort (without lambda)

Comparator< Employee > bySalary = new Comparator< Employee >() {
  @Override
  public int compare(Employee o1, Employee o2) {
   return o1.getSalary().compareTo(o2.getSalary());
  }
 };

2. Lambda expression equivalent.

 Comparator< Employee > bySalary = 
  (Employee o1, Employee o2)->o1.getSalary().compareTo(o2.getSalary());
