有大量代码可以按字典顺序对字符串数组进行排序，但我找不到可以按字典顺序对一个字符串中的字符进行反向排序的代码。到目前为止，我发现使用 std::sort()在 <algorithm>可能是最接近的候选人。
这是我尝试过的:
template <typename T>
class ReverseComparator{
bool operator()(T l, T r){return !(l < r);}
};
//.....later
std::sort(str.begin(), str.end(), comparator);
这里的问题是:如何初始化我的比较器以便它可以比较字符串中的字符？我试过 ReverseComparator<char> comparator但编译器会抛出大量错误消息。 gcc-4.5.1 showed these errors :

最佳答案
虽然解决编译器错误只需要公开operator()，但根据该问题的大多数其他答案，您应该注意您的比较器不是有效的strict 比较器。对于被视为相等的元素，严格比较器必须返回 false。您还应该使用 const 引用而不是比较器参数类型的值。
我想为您提供多个选项来解决您的问题(不是编译器错误，而是原始问题，以相反的词法顺序对字符串进行排序)。对于两个相等的元素，它们都返回 false。
第一个选项 是您的解决方案，但我修正了严格性:
template <typename T>
class ReverseComparator{
public:
bool operator()(const T& l, const T& r){return (r < l);}
};
std::sort(str.begin(), str.end(), ReverseComparator());
第二个选项使用 C++11 的 lambda 函数，但本质上是相同的:
std::sort(str.begin(), str.end(), [](const T& l, const T& r){return (r < l);});
作为第三种选择，正如 Mooning Duck 首次提出的那样，您可以简单地在类型 char 上使用 operator> 的 std 仿函数:
std::sort(str.begin(), str.end(), std::greater<char>());
第四个选项(最简单的一个)是在 reversed 字符串上使用默认比较器，正如 Peter Wood 首次提出的那样(注意 r !):
std::sort(str.rbegin(), str.rend());
关于C++ 对字符串中的字符进行反向排序，我们在Stack Overflow上找到一个类似的问题： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14095450/
