- Method Detail
  - compare
```
int compare(EndpointDirection lhsDirection,
            com.google.common.collect.BoundType lhsBoundType,
            EndpointDirection rhsDirection,
            com.google.common.collect.BoundType rhsBoundType)
```
    Compares two end points.
    
    Parameters:
    
    lhsDirection - The direction of the first end point.
    
    lhsBoundType - The bound type of the first end point.
    
    rhsDirection - The direction of the second end point.
    
    rhsBoundType - The bound type of the second end point.
    
    Returns:
    
    -1 if the first end point is less than the second end point, 0 if both end points are equals, or +1 otherwise.
  - compare
```
default int compare(EndpointType lhs,
                    EndpointType rhs)
```
    Compares two end points.
    
    Parameters:
    
    lhs - First end point to compare.
    
    rhs - Second end point to compare.
    
    Returns:
    
    -1 if the first end point is less than the second end point, 0 if both end points are equals, or +1 otherwise.
