UnambiguousInteractorBaseComparator (PSI :: JAMI - Java framework for molecular interactions 3.3.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- psidev.psi.mi.jami.utils.comparator.interactor.InteractorBaseComparator
- - psidev.psi.mi.jami.utils.comparator.interactor.UnambiguousInteractorBaseComparator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparator<Interactor>
```
public class UnambiguousInteractorBaseComparator
extends InteractorBaseComparator
```
Unambiguous interactor comparator It will only compare identifiers if one interactor does have identifiers using UnambiguousIdentifierComparator. Otherwise, it will first compare shortNames (case sensitive) fullnames(case sensitive) and if the shortNames and fullnames are the same, it will compare the aliases using UnambiguousAliasComparator. This comparator will ignore all the other properties of an interactor.
