How to sort JTree nodes

Code

public static void sortTree(DefaultMutableTreeNode root) {
  Enumeration e = root.depthFirstEnumeration();
  while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    DefaultMutableTreeNode node = (DefaultMutableTreeNode) e.nextElement();
    if (!node.isLeaf()) {
      sort2(node);   //selection sort
      //sort3(node); //JDK 1.6.0: iterative merge sort
      //sort3(node); //JDK 1.7.0: TimSort
    }
  }
}
public static Comparator< DefaultMutableTreeNode> tnc = new Comparator< DefaultMutableTreeNode>() {
  @Override public int compare(DefaultMutableTreeNode a, DefaultMutableTreeNode b) {
    //Sort the parent and child nodes separately:
    if (a.isLeaf() && !b.isLeaf()) {
      return 1;
    } else if (!a.isLeaf() && b.isLeaf()) {
      return -1;
    } else {
      String sa = a.getUserObject().toString();
      String sb = b.getUserObject().toString();
      return sa.compareToIgnoreCase(sb);
    }
  }
};
// JDK 1.8.0
// a lambda expression Comparator
//Comparator< DefaultMutableTreeNode> tnc = Comparator.comparing(DefaultMutableTreeNode::isLeaf)
//                                                    .thenComparing(n -> n.getUserObject().toString());
//selection sort
public static void sort2(DefaultMutableTreeNode parent) {
  int n = parent.getChildCount();
  for (int i = 0; i < n - 1; i++) {
    int min = i;
    for (int j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {
      if (tnc.compare((DefaultMutableTreeNode) parent.getChildAt(min),
                      (DefaultMutableTreeNode) parent.getChildAt(j)) > 0) {
        min = j;
      }
    }
    if (i != min) {
      MutableTreeNode a = (MutableTreeNode) parent.getChildAt(i);
      MutableTreeNode b = (MutableTreeNode) parent.getChildAt(min);
      parent.insert(b, i);
      parent.insert(a, min);

    children.add((DefaultMutableTreeNode) parent.getChildAt(i));

  Collections.sort(children, tnc); //iterative merge sort
  parent.removeAllChildren();
  for (MutableTreeNode node: children) {
    parent.add(node);
  }
