我对Java比较陌生,经常发现需要对值进行Map<Key,Value>排序。

由于这些值不是唯一的,我发现自己将keySet转换为一个数组,并使用自定义比较器通过数组排序对该数组进行排序,该比较器根据与该键关联的值进行排序。

有没有更简单的方法?

在Java 8及以上版本中对任何地图进行排序的简单方法

Map<String, Object> mapToSort = new HashMap<>();

List<Map.Entry<String, Object>> list = new LinkedList<>(mapToSort.entrySet());

Collections.sort(list, Comparator.comparing(o -> o.getValue().getAttribute()));

HashMap<String, Object> sortedMap = new LinkedHashMap<>();
for (Map.Entry<String, Object> map : list) {
   sortedMap.put(map.getKey(), map.getValue());
}

如果您使用的是Java 7及以下版本

Map<String, Object> mapToSort = new HashMap<>();

List<Map.Entry<String, Object>> list = new LinkedList<>(mapToSort.entrySet());

Collections.sort(list, new Comparator<Map.Entry<String, Object>>() {
    @Override
    public int compare(Map.Entry<String, Object> o1, Map.Entry<String, Object> o2) {
       return o1.getValue().getAttribute().compareTo(o2.getValue().getAttribute());      
    }
});

HashMap<String, Object> sortedMap = new LinkedHashMap<>();
for (Map.Entry<String, Object> map : list) {
   sortedMap.put(map.getKey(), map.getValue());
}

我认为最好的方法是使用特殊的数据结构。您可以考虑TreeMap,但在一般情况下,值可能不是唯一的。因此,您的选择是PriorityQueue:

public static <K, V> Iterator<Map.Entry<K, V>> sortByValue(
                                              Map<K, V> map,
                                              Comparator<V> valueComparator) {
    Queue<Map.Entry<K, V>> queue = new PriorityQueue<>((one, two) ->
                     valueComparator.compare(one.getValue(), two.getValue()));
    queue.addAll(map.entrySet());
    return queue.iterator();
}

我可以给你举个例子,但这肯定是你需要的。

map = {10 = 3, 11 = 1,12 = 2} 

假设你想要前2个最常用的键,即(10,12)因此,最简单的方法是使用PriorityQueue根据映射的值进行排序。

PriorityQueue<Integer> pq = new PriorityQueue<>((a, b) -> (map.get(a) - map.get(b));
for(int key: map.keySets()) {
   pq.add(key);
   if(pq.size() > 2) {
      pq.poll();
   }
}
// Now pq has the top 2 most frequent key based on value. It sorts the value. 

当然,Stephen的解决方案真的很棒,但对于那些不会使用Guava的人来说:

这是我的解决方案,用于按值对地图进行排序。此解决方案处理两倍相同值等情况。。。

// If you want to sort a map by value, and if there can be twice the same value:

// here is your original map
Map<String,Integer> mapToSortByValue = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
mapToSortByValue.put("A", 3);
mapToSortByValue.put("B", 1);
mapToSortByValue.put("C", 3);
mapToSortByValue.put("D", 5);
mapToSortByValue.put("E", -1);
mapToSortByValue.put("F", 1000);
mapToSortByValue.put("G", 79);
mapToSortByValue.put("H", 15);

// Sort all the map entries by value
Set<Map.Entry<String,Integer>> set = new TreeSet<Map.Entry<String,Integer>>(
        new Comparator<Map.Entry<String,Integer>>(){
            @Override
            public int compare(Map.Entry<String,Integer> obj1, Map.Entry<String,Integer> obj2) {
                Integer val1 = obj1.getValue();
                Integer val2 = obj2.getValue();
                // DUPLICATE VALUE CASE
                // If the values are equals, we can't return 0 because the 2 entries would be considered
                // as equals and one of them would be deleted (because we use a set, no duplicate, remember!)
                int compareValues = val1.compareTo(val2);
                if ( compareValues == 0 ) {
                    String key1 = obj1.getKey();
                    String key2 = obj2.getKey();
                    int compareKeys = key1.compareTo(key2);
                    if ( compareKeys == 0 ) {
                        // what you return here will tell us if you keep REAL KEY-VALUE duplicates in your set
                        // if you want to, do whatever you want but do not return 0 (but don't break the comparator contract!)
                        return 0;
                    }
                    return compareKeys;
                }
                return compareValues;
            }
        }
);
set.addAll(mapToSortByValue.entrySet());


// OK NOW OUR SET IS SORTED COOL!!!!

// And there's nothing more to do: the entries are sorted by value!
for ( Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : set ) {
    System.out.println("Set entries: " + entry.getKey() + " -> " + entry.getValue());
}




// But if you add them to an hashmap
Map<String,Integer> myMap = new HashMap<String,Integer>();
// When iterating over the set the order is still good in the println...
for ( Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : set ) {
    System.out.println("Added to result map entries: " + entry.getKey() + " " + entry.getValue());
    myMap.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
}

// But once they are in the hashmap, the order is not kept!
for ( Integer value : myMap.values() ) {
    System.out.println("Result map values: " + value);
}
// Also this way doesn't work:
// Logic because the entryset is a hashset for hashmaps and not a treeset
// (and even if it was a treeset, it would be on the keys only)
for ( Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : myMap.entrySet() ) {
    System.out.println("Result map entries: " + entry.getKey() + " -> " + entry.getValue());
}


// CONCLUSION:
// If you want to iterate on a map ordered by value, you need to remember:
// 1) Maps are only sorted by keys, so you can't sort them directly by value
// 2) So you simply CAN'T return a map to a sortMapByValue function
// 3) You can't reverse the keys and the values because you have duplicate values
//    This also means you can't neither use Guava/Commons bidirectionnal treemaps or stuff like that

// SOLUTIONS
// So you can:
// 1) only sort the values which is easy, but you loose the key/value link (since you have duplicate values)
// 2) sort the map entries, but don't forget to handle the duplicate value case (like i did)
// 3) if you really need to return a map, use a LinkedHashMap which keep the insertion order

希望它能帮助一些人

好的,这个版本使用两个新的Map对象和两次迭代,并对值进行排序。希望,虽然地图条目必须循环两次,但表现良好:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Map<String, String> unsorted = new HashMap<String, String>();
    unsorted.put("Cde", "Cde_Value");
    unsorted.put("Abc", "Abc_Value");
    unsorted.put("Bcd", "Bcd_Value");

    Comparator<String> comparer = new Comparator<String>() {
        @Override
        public int compare(String o1, String o2) {
            return o1.compareTo(o2);
        }};

    System.out.println(sortByValue(unsorted, comparer));

}

public static <K, V> Map<K,V> sortByValue(Map<K, V> in, Comparator<? super V> compare) {
    Map<V, K> swapped = new TreeMap<V, K>(compare);
    for(Entry<K,V> entry: in.entrySet()) {
        if (entry.getValue() != null) {
            swapped.put(entry.getValue(), entry.getKey());
        }
    }
    LinkedHashMap<K, V> result = new LinkedHashMap<K, V>();
    for(Entry<V,K> entry: swapped.entrySet()) {
        if (entry.getValue() != null) {
            result.put(entry.getValue(), entry.getKey());
        }
    }
    return result;
}

该解决方案使用带有比较器的TreeMap,并对所有空键和值进行排序。首先,使用TreeMap中的排序功能对值进行排序,然后使用排序后的Map创建一个结果,因为LinkedHashMap保留了相同的值顺序。

如果您的Map值实现Comparable(例如String),那么这应该会起作用

Map<Object, String> map = new HashMap<Object, String>();
// Populate the Map
List<String> mapValues = new ArrayList<String>(map.values());
Collections.sort(mapValues);

如果映射值本身没有实现Comparable,但您有一个Comparable实例可以对它们进行排序,请将最后一行替换为:

Collections.sort(mapValues, comparable);
