Java 8: sort list of objects by attribute without custom comparator

by

Assuming you actually have a List<AnObject>, all you need is

list.sort(Comparator.comparing(a -> a.attr));

If you make you code clean by not using public fields, but accessor methods, it becomes even cleaner:

list.sort(Comparator.comparing(AnObject::getAttr));
