J2ME: RecordEnumeration Ordering?

[gilgantic]

How do you reverse the order in an J2ME RecordEnumerati on? I get a
result of 3, 2, 1 instead of 1, 2, 3 for the code below.

RecordEnumerati on enum = recordStore.enu merateRecords(n ull, null,
false); while( enum.hasNextEle ment() )
{
byte[] data = enum.nextRecord ();
String recordStr = readRecord( data );
System.out.prin tln(recordStr);
}

What's the deal here?

The order in which the records are returned is never guaranteed (better:
they are not ordered).
If you want to order the record-enumeration, use the
javax.microedit ion.rms.RecordC omparator interface.
