您可以使用functor作为std::sort的第三个参数，或者您可以在类中定义操作符<。

struct X {
    int x;
    bool operator<( const X& val ) const { 
        return x < val.x; 
    }
};

struct Xgreater
{
    bool operator()( const X& lx, const X& rx ) const {
        return lx.x < rx.x;
    }
};

int main () {
    std::vector<X> my_vec;

    // use X::operator< by default
    std::sort( my_vec.begin(), my_vec.end() );

    // use functor
    std::sort( my_vec.begin(), my_vec.end(), Xgreater() );
}

在类中，可以重载"<"操作符。

class MyClass
{
  bool operator <(const MyClass& rhs)
  {
    return this->key < rhs.key;
  }
}

    // sort algorithm example
    #include <iostream>     // std::cout
    #include <algorithm>    // std::sort
    #include <vector>       // std::vector
    using namespace std;
    int main () {
        char myints[] = {'F','C','E','G','A','H','B','D'};
        vector<char> myvector (myints, myints+8);               // 32 71 12 45 26 80 53 33
        // using default comparison (operator <):
        sort (myvector.begin(), myvector.end());           //(12 32 45 71)26 80 53 33
        // print out content:
        cout << "myvector contains:";
        for (int i=0; i!=8; i++)
            cout << ' ' <<myvector[i];
        cout << '\n';
        system("PAUSE");
    return 0;
    }

typedef struct Freqamp{
    double freq;
    double amp;
}FREQAMP;

bool struct_cmp_by_freq(FREQAMP a, FREQAMP b)
{
    return a.freq < b.freq;
}

main()
{
    vector <FREQAMP> temp;
    FREQAMP freqAMP;

    freqAMP.freq = 330;
    freqAMP.amp = 117.56;
    temp.push_back(freqAMP);

    freqAMP.freq = 450;
    freqAMP.amp = 99.56;
    temp.push_back(freqAMP);

    freqAMP.freq = 110;
    freqAMP.amp = 106.56;
    temp.push_back(freqAMP);

    sort(temp.begin(),temp.end(), struct_cmp_by_freq);
}

如果compare为false，它将执行“swap”。

您可以使用用户定义的比较器类。

class comparator
{
    int x;
    bool operator()( const comparator &m,  const comparator &n )
    { 
       return m.x<n.x;
    }
 }

是的，std::sort()与第三个参数(函数或对象)将更容易。一个例子: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/algorithm/sort/
