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());
}

对键进行排序需要Comparator为每个比较查找每个值。一个更具可扩展性的解决方案将直接使用entrySet，因为这样每次比较都会立即获得该值（尽管我没有用数字来支持）。

这是这样一件事的通用版本：

public static <K, V extends Comparable<? super V>> List<K> getKeysSortedByValue(Map<K, V> map) {
    final int size = map.size();
    final List<Map.Entry<K, V>> list = new ArrayList<Map.Entry<K, V>>(size);
    list.addAll(map.entrySet());
    final ValueComparator<V> cmp = new ValueComparator<V>();
    Collections.sort(list, cmp);
    final List<K> keys = new ArrayList<K>(size);
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
        keys.set(i, list.get(i).getKey());
    }
    return keys;
}

private static final class ValueComparator<V extends Comparable<? super V>>
                                     implements Comparator<Map.Entry<?, V>> {
    public int compare(Map.Entry<?, V> o1, Map.Entry<?, V> o2) {
        return o1.getValue().compareTo(o2.getValue());
    }
}

有一些方法可以减少上述解决方案的内存旋转。例如，创建的第一个ArrayList可以重新用作返回值；这将需要抑制一些泛型警告，但对于可重用的库代码来说，这可能是值得的。此外，Comparator不必在每次调用时重新分配。

这里有一个更有效但不太吸引人的版本：

public static <K, V extends Comparable<? super V>> List<K> getKeysSortedByValue2(Map<K, V> map) {
    final int size = map.size();
    final List reusedList = new ArrayList(size);
    final List<Map.Entry<K, V>> meView = reusedList;
    meView.addAll(map.entrySet());
    Collections.sort(meView, SINGLE);
    final List<K> keyView = reusedList;
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
        keyView.set(i, meView.get(i).getKey());
    }
    return keyView;
}

private static final Comparator SINGLE = new ValueComparator();

最后，如果您需要连续访问已排序的信息（而不是偶尔排序一次），可以使用额外的多重映射。如果你需要更多细节，请告诉我。。。

最好的方法是将HashMap转换为TreeMap。TreeMap自己排序键。如果您希望对值进行排序，则可以快速修复，如果您的值不重复，则可以使用键切换值。

这里有一个OO解决方案（即，不使用静态方法）：

import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.Comparator;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.LinkedHashMap;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;

public class SortableValueMap<K, V extends Comparable<V>>
  extends LinkedHashMap<K, V> {
  public SortableValueMap() { }

  public SortableValueMap( Map<K, V> map ) {
    super( map );
  }

  public void sortByValue() {
    List<Map.Entry<K, V>> list = new LinkedList<Map.Entry<K, V>>( entrySet() );

    Collections.sort( list, new Comparator<Map.Entry<K, V>>() {
      public int compare( Map.Entry<K, V> entry1, Map.Entry<K, V> entry2 ) {
        return entry1.getValue().compareTo( entry2.getValue() );
      }
    });

    clear();

    for( Map.Entry<K, V> entry : list ) {
      put( entry.getKey(), entry.getValue() );
    }
  }

  private static void print( String text, Map<String, Double> map ) {
    System.out.println( text );

    for( String key : map.keySet() ) {
      System.out.println( "key/value: " + key + "/" + map.get( key ) );
    }
  }

  public static void main( String[] args ) {
    SortableValueMap<String, Double> map =
      new SortableValueMap<String, Double>();

    map.put( "A", 67.5 );
    map.put( "B", 99.5 );
    map.put( "C", 82.4 );
    map.put( "D", 42.0 );

    print( "Unsorted map", map );
    map.sortByValue();
    print( "Sorted map", map );
  }
}

特此捐赠给公共领域。

因为地图是无序的要对其进行排序，我们可以执行以下操作

Map<String, String> map= new TreeMap<String, String>(unsortMap);

您应该注意，与哈希映射不同，树映射保证其元素将按升序键排序。

基于@devinmore代码，一种使用泛型并支持升序和降序排序的map排序方法。
