Using a SortedArray is perfect for sorting values.
Now I like to have a BaseArray with points (x,y,z), so 3 dimension.
How to sort such a point (3 dimensional) array for example on x value.
So, the point with the lowest x value first, and so on.

In fact, it is easier than I thought.
Just define it as a vector and change the inline code.

class MySortedIntegerArray : public maxon::SortedArray<MySortedIntegerArray, maxon::BaseArray<Vector> >
{
	public:
		MySortedIntegerArray() {}
	// your sorted array must implement a LessThan() method
	static inline maxon::Bool LessThan(Vector a, Vector b)	{ return a.x < b.x; }
};
  
void SortedArrayDemo()
{
	MySortedIntegerArray test;
	test.Append(Vector(25,2,3));
	test.Append(Vector(2,20,2));
	...
