Insert objects in LinkedList based on object's calendar object

Question

I'm making a list of transactions, each transaction have a set of data fields including a calendar object. I would like to insert these transaction objects to a LinkedList based on the date in the transactions calendar object. In other words, sorted by date.

How can this be done?

Please clarify. What does "based on the date"? Do you mean that you want the list sorted by date? — JB Nizet, Apr 10 '13 at 12:35

put them into a LinkedList and sort using comparator taking two transaction object and comparing their calendar fields. — khachik, Apr 10 '13 at 12:45

I'll just give it to you:

Collections.sort(list, new Comparator<MyClass>() {
    public int compareTo(MyClass a, MyClass b) {
        return a.getDate().compareTo(b.getDate());
    }
}
