/**
 * <code>RowSorter</code> provides the basis for sorting and filtering.
 * Beyond creating and installing a <code>RowSorter</code>, you very rarely
 * need to interact with one directly.  Refer to
 * {@link javax.swing.table.TableRowSorter TableRowSorter} for a concrete
 * implementation of <code>RowSorter</code> for <code>JTable</code>.
 * <p>
 * <code>RowSorter</code>'s primary role is to provide a mapping between
 * two coordinate systems: that of the view (for example a
 * <code>JTable</code>) and that of the underlying data source, typically a
 * model.
 * <p>
 * The view invokes the following methods on the <code>RowSorter</code>:
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>toggleSortOrder</code> &#151; The view invokes this when the
 *     appropriate user gesture has occurred to trigger a sort.  For example,
 *     the user clicked a column header in a table.
 * <li>One of the model change methods &#151; The view invokes a model
 *     change method when the underlying model
 *     has changed.  There may be order dependencies in how the events are
 *     delivered, so a <code>RowSorter</code> should not update its mapping
 *     until one of these methods is invoked.
 * </ul>
 * Because the view makes extensive use of  the
 * <code>convertRowIndexToModel</code>,
 * <code>convertRowIndexToView</code> and <code>getViewRowCount</code> methods,
 * these methods need to be fast.
 * <p>
 * <code>RowSorter</code> provides notification of changes by way of
 * <code>RowSorterListener</code>.  Two types of notification are sent:
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>RowSorterEvent.Type.SORT_ORDER_CHANGED</code> &#151; notifies
 *     listeners that the sort order has changed.  This is typically followed
 *     by a notification that the sort has changed.
 * <li><code>RowSorterEvent.Type.SORTED</code> &#151; notifies listeners that
 *     the mapping maintained by the <code>RowSorter</code> has changed in
 *     some way.
 * </ul>
 * <code>RowSorter</code> implementations typically don't have a one-to-one
 * mapping with the underlying model, but they can.
 * For example, if a database does the sorting,
 * <code>toggleSortOrder</code> might call through to the database
 * (on a background thread), and override the mapping methods to return the
 * argument that is passed in.
 * <p>
 * Concrete implementations of <code>RowSorter</code>
 * need to reference a model such as <code>TableModel</code> or
 * <code>ListModel</code>.  The view classes, such as
 * <code>JTable</code> and <code>JList</code>, will also have a
 * reference to the model.  To avoid ordering dependencies,
 * <code>RowSorter</code> implementations should not install a
 * listener on the model.  Instead the view class will call into the
 * <code>RowSorter</code> when the model changes.  For
 * example, if a row is updated in a <code>TableModel</code>
 * <code>JTable</code> invokes <code>rowsUpdated</code>.
 * When the model changes, the view may call into any of the following methods:
 * <code>modelStructureChanged</code>, <code>allRowsChanged</code>,
 * <code>rowsInserted</code>, <code>rowsDeleted</code> and
 * <code>rowsUpdated</code>.
 *
 * @param <M> the type of the underlying model
 * @see javax.swing.table.TableRowSorter
