<Source>.CompareItem (Function)
In french: <Source>.CompareRubrique
Compares two values by sorting them according to the specified HFSQL index item: all the sort options specified for the item are taken into account (sensitivity to the case, to the punctuation, sort direction, Unicode language, ...).
Example
SWITCH Customer.CompareItem(Name, sName1, sName2)
CASE 0
Info("The two values are identical.")
CASE 1
Info("Name1 is bigger.")
CASE -1
Info("Name2 is bigger.")
END
MyTestFile.CompareItem(ItmCaseSensitiveAscending, "A", "B")
// Returns -1 (like StringCompare)
MyTestFile.CompareItem(ItmCaseInsensitiveAscending, "A", "B")
// Returns +1 (unlike StringCompare)
