Sorting larger keys #8

Open rw opened 3 years ago

rw commented 3 years ago

Is there a way to sort keys that are larger than the machine word? For example, I have a tuple struct like this:

struct S(u64, u64, u64);

That I would like to be able to sort like [u8; 24]. Thanks!

So far it is not planned, but I have ideas how to do this. But I have little time, I don't think I would be able to release this soon.
