027 * Compare the file name <b>extensions</b> for order

029 * <p>
030 * This comparator can be used to sort lists or arrays of files
031 * by their file extension either in a case-sensitive, case-insensitive or
032 * system dependant case sensitive way. A number of singleton instances
033 * are provided for the various case sensitivity options (using {@link IOCase})
034 * and the reverse of those options.
035 * <p>
036 * Example of a <i>case-sensitive</i> file extension sort using the
037 * {@link #EXTENSION_COMPARATOR} singleton instance:
038 * <pre>
039 * List<File> list = ...
040 * Collections.sort(list, ExtensionFileComparator.EXTENSION_COMPARATOR);
041 * </pre>
042 * <p>
043 * Example of a <i>reverse case-insensitive</i> file extension sort using the
044 * {@link #EXTENSION_INSENSITIVE_REVERSE} singleton instance:
045 * <pre>
046 * File[] array = ...
047 * Arrays.sort(array, ExtensionFileComparator.EXTENSION_INSENSITIVE_REVERSE);
