Follow-up Comment #3, bug #37130 (project gnustep):
I had a look at his code and think that most of it should be fine to merge,
even without a copyright assignment. Most of the code size are method and
constant declarations, no problem here. The merge sort itself is a standard
implementation (although I would like to see it rewritten to do less array
copying. Maybe we could create one mutable array at the start and sort that
inplace? This sounds like the missing method NMutableArray
-sortWithOptions:usingComparator:)
The only code that includes real genuine ideas is the method
-indexOfObject:inSortedRange:options:usingComparator: which is nicely written.
Not sure how to handle that.
We should also stop a minute here and rethink the different sorting
implementations in base. In NSArray.m we already have a shell sort and in
NSSortDescriptor.m a quicksort implementation. Could we base all these on this
new implementation?
