However, why don't we add a method :
listFiles( boolean ordered )
I don't see that the user of this method (which would normally be

You're right? I was just trying to offer some options. But the more I
think about it, the most I think it's useless.
What
I'm saying is, that in which case do you really want to declare
"please give me this list unordered"? A sorted list is about as
unordered as an unordered if you don't care about the order :-)
yeah, exactly :) I had the very same thought 2 mins ago : an ordered
list is just a special case of an unordered list...
Besides, it doesn't resolve Andreas problem
Assuming he has any kind of real problem, so far ... We are still
waiting for a use case where it's important to get an unordered list.
as there would still be a
requirement to implement the method in the case where ordered=true,
right?
Right.
Dave just summuraize pretty well how common sense it is to have this
method returning an ordered list. I dion't see any problem with this
approach either.
thanks Niklas !
