如果没有java-8，你可以在一行Commons集合和Closure类中完成这些

List<Item> list;
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
Map<Key, Item> map  = new HashMap<Key, Item>>(){{
    CollectionUtils.forAllDo(list, new Closure() {
        @Override
        public void execute(Object input) {
            Item item = (Item) input;
            put(i.getKey(), item);
        }
    });
}};

List<Item> list;
Map<Key,Item> map = new HashMap<Key,Item>();
for (Item i : list) map.put(i.getKey(),i);

当然，假设每个Item都有一个getKey()方法，该方法返回一个正确类型的键。

一个Java 8转换List<?>的对象到Map<k, v>:

List<Hosting> list = new ArrayList<>();
list.add(new Hosting(1, "liquidweb.com", new Date()));
list.add(new Hosting(2, "linode.com", new Date()));
list.add(new Hosting(3, "digitalocean.com", new Date()));

//example 1
Map<Integer, String> result1 = list.stream().collect(
    Collectors.toMap(Hosting::getId, Hosting::getName));

System.out.println("Result 1 : " + result1);

//example 2
Map<Integer, String> result2 = list.stream().collect(
    Collectors.toMap(x -> x.getId(), x -> x.getName()));

从下面复制的代码: https://www.mkyong.com/java8/java-8-convert-list-to-map/

根据你想要达到的目标，你会想到许多解决方案:

每个List项都是键和值

for( Object o : list ) {
    map.put(o,o);
}

列表元素有一些可以查找的东西，可能是一个名称:

for( MyObject o : list ) {
    map.put(o.name,o);
}

列表元素有一些可以查找的东西，并且不能保证它们是唯一的:使用google MultiMaps

for( MyObject o : list ) {
    multimap.put(o.name,o);
}

将所有元素的位置作为键值:

for( int i=0; i<list.size; i++ ) {
    map.put(i,list.get(i));
}

...

这取决于你想要达到什么目标。

从示例中可以看到，Map是从键到值的映射，而列表只是一系列元素，每个元素都有一个位置。所以它们不能自动兑换。

public class EmployeeDetailsFetchListToMap {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    List<EmployeeDetailsFetch> list = new ArrayList<>();
    list.add(new EmployeeDetailsFetch(1L, "vinay", 25000F));
    list.add(new EmployeeDetailsFetch(2L, "kohli", 5000000F));
    list.add(new EmployeeDetailsFetch(3L, "dhoni", 20000000F));

    //adding id as key and map of id and student name
    Map<Long, Map<Long, String>> map1 = list.stream()
        .collect(
            Collectors.groupingBy(
                EmployeeDetailsFetch::getEmpId,
                Collectors.toMap(
                    EmployeeDetailsFetch::getEmpId,
                    EmployeeDetailsFetch::getEmployeeName
                )
            )
        );
    System.out.println(map1);

    //converting list into map of Student
    //Adding id as Key and Value as Student into a map
    Map<Long, EmployeeDetailsFetch> map = list.stream()
        .collect(
            Collectors.toMap(
                EmployeeDetailsFetch::getEmpId, 
                EmployeeDetailsFetch -> EmployeeDetailsFetch
            )
        );

    for(Map.Entry<Long, EmployeeDetailsFetch> m : map.entrySet()) {
      System.out.println("key :" + m.getKey() + "  Value : " + m.getValue());
    }
  }
}
