API Documentation: Interface IndexObjectCollator
| Name | IndexObjectCollator |

A comparator used in a search on an index that compares an Object with a 64-bit index reference and determines if the Object value is larger, smaller or the same as the referenced value. This typically is used as a device to dereference a 64-bit key value into a collatable object in another structure to build and query an index.
