Sorting a LinkedList

Posted by Eduardo on November 06, 2001 at 6:25 PM

I have a LinkedList list containning numbers (long). I need to sort it in regular ascendent order, but looks like it doesn't take it as a number, giving me results like:

0, 0, 1, 10, 100, 2, 22, 245,...

Instead of:
0, 0, 1, 2, 10, 22, 100, 245,...

Does anybod has a solution for this mystery?

Thanks!
