bool QCollatorSortKey::operator<(const QCollatorSortKey & otherKey) const

According to the QCollator that created the key, returns true if the key should be sorted before than otherKey; otherwise returns false.

See also compare().

QCollatorSortKey & QCollatorSortKey::operator=(const QCollatorSortKey & other)

Assigns other to this collator key.
