我已经查看了给定的答案，但很多答案比需要的要复杂，或者在多个键具有相同值时删除映射元素。

以下是我认为更适合的解决方案：

public static <K, V extends Comparable<V>> Map<K, V> sortByValues(final Map<K, V> map) {
    Comparator<K> valueComparator =  new Comparator<K>() {
        public int compare(K k1, K k2) {
            int compare = map.get(k2).compareTo(map.get(k1));
            if (compare == 0) return 1;
            else return compare;
        }
    };
    Map<K, V> sortedByValues = new TreeMap<K, V>(valueComparator);
    sortedByValues.putAll(map);
    return sortedByValues;
}

请注意，地图是从最高值到最低值排序的。

HashMap＜String，Long＞的最简单的暴力排序HashMap方法：您可以复制粘贴它，然后这样使用：

public class Test  {
    public static void main(String[] args)  {
        HashMap<String, Long> hashMap = new HashMap<>();
        hashMap.put("Cat", (long) 4);
        hashMap.put("Human", (long) 2);
        hashMap.put("Dog", (long) 4);
        hashMap.put("Fish", (long) 0);
        hashMap.put("Tree", (long) 1);
        hashMap.put("Three-legged-human", (long) 3);
        hashMap.put("Monkey", (long) 2);

        System.out.println(hashMap);  //{Human=2, Cat=4, Three-legged-human=3, Monkey=2, Fish=0, Tree=1, Dog=4}
        System.out.println(sortHashMap(hashMap));  //{Cat=4, Dog=4, Three-legged-human=3, Human=2, Monkey=2, Tree=1, Fish=0}
    }

    public LinkedHashMap<String, Long> sortHashMap(HashMap<String, Long> unsortedMap)  {
        LinkedHashMap<String, Long> result = new LinkedHashMap<>();

        //add String keys to an array: the array would get sorted, based on those keys' values
        ArrayList<String> sortedKeys = new ArrayList<>();
        for (String key: unsortedMap.keySet())  {
            sortedKeys.add(key);
        }

        //sort the ArrayList<String> of keys    
        for (int i=0; i<unsortedMap.size(); i++)  {
            for (int j=1; j<sortedKeys.size(); j++)  {
                if (unsortedMap.get(sortedKeys.get(j)) > unsortedMap.get(sortedKeys.get(j-1))) {
                    String temp = sortedKeys.get(j);
                    sortedKeys.set(j, sortedKeys.get(j-1));
                    sortedKeys.set(j-1, temp);
                }
            }
        }

        // construct the result Map
        for (String key: sortedKeys)  {
            result.put(key, unsortedMap.get(key));
        }

        return result;
    }
}

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。

这是Anthony答案的变体，如果存在重复值，则该答案无效：

public static <K, V extends Comparable<V>> Map<K, V> sortMapByValues(final Map<K, V> map) {
    Comparator<K> valueComparator =  new Comparator<K>() {
        public int compare(K k1, K k2) {
            final V v1 = map.get(k1);
            final V v2 = map.get(k2);

            /* Not sure how to handle nulls ... */
            if (v1 == null) {
                return (v2 == null) ? 0 : 1;
            }

            int compare = v2.compareTo(v1);
            if (compare != 0)
            {
                return compare;
            }
            else
            {
                Integer h1 = k1.hashCode();
                Integer h2 = k2.hashCode();
                return h2.compareTo(h1);
            }
        }
    };
    Map<K, V> sortedByValues = new TreeMap<K, V>(valueComparator);
    sortedByValues.putAll(map);
    return sortedByValues;
}

注意，如何处理空值还很难说。

这种方法的一个重要优点是它实际上返回了一个Map，这与这里提供的其他解决方案不同。

当你有两个相等的项目时，投票给最多的答案不起作用。TreeMap保留相等的值。

示例：未排序地图

key/value: D/67.3
key/value: A/99.5
key/value: B/67.4
key/value: C/67.5
key/value: E/99.5

后果

key/value: A/99.5
key/value: C/67.5
key/value: B/67.4
key/value: D/67.3

所以省略了E！！

对我来说，它可以很好地调整比较器，如果它等于，则不返回0，而是返回-1。

在示例中：

类ValueComparator实现Comparator{地图库；公共ValueComparator（地图库）{this.base=基数；}public int compare（对象a，对象b）{如果（（双）base.get（a）<（双）base.get（b））{返回1；}否则如果（（双）base.get（a）==（双）base.get（b））{返回-1；}其他{返回-1；}}}

现在它返回：

未排序地图：

key/value: D/67.3
key/value: A/99.5
key/value: B/67.4
key/value: C/67.5
key/value: E/99.5

结果：

key/value: A/99.5
key/value: E/99.5
key/value: C/67.5
key/value: B/67.4
key/value: D/67.3

作为对《外国人》的回应（2011年11月22日）：我将此解决方案用于整数Id和名称的映射，但想法是相同的，因此上面的代码可能不正确（我将在测试中编写并给您正确的代码），这是基于上面解决方案的map排序代码：

package nl.iamit.util;

import java.util.Comparator;
import java.util.Map;

public class Comparators {


    public static class MapIntegerStringComparator implements Comparator {

        Map<Integer, String> base;

        public MapIntegerStringComparator(Map<Integer, String> base) {
            this.base = base;
        }

        public int compare(Object a, Object b) {

            int compare = ((String) base.get(a))
                    .compareTo((String) base.get(b));
            if (compare == 0) {
                return -1;
            }
            return compare;
        }
    }


}

这是测试类（我刚刚测试了它，这适用于Integer，StringMap：

package test.nl.iamit.util;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.TreeMap;
import nl.iamit.util.Comparators;
import org.junit.Test;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertArrayEquals;

public class TestComparators {


    @Test
    public void testMapIntegerStringComparator(){
        HashMap<Integer, String> unSoretedMap = new HashMap<Integer, String>();
        Comparators.MapIntegerStringComparator bvc = new Comparators.MapIntegerStringComparator(
                unSoretedMap);
        TreeMap<Integer, String> sorted_map = new TreeMap<Integer, String>(bvc);
        //the testdata:
        unSoretedMap.put(new Integer(1), "E");
        unSoretedMap.put(new Integer(2), "A");
        unSoretedMap.put(new Integer(3), "E");
        unSoretedMap.put(new Integer(4), "B");
        unSoretedMap.put(new Integer(5), "F");

        sorted_map.putAll(unSoretedMap);

        Object[] targetKeys={new Integer(2),new Integer(4),new Integer(3),new Integer(1),new Integer(5) };
        Object[] currecntKeys=sorted_map.keySet().toArray();

        assertArrayEquals(targetKeys,currecntKeys);
    }
}

以下是地图比较器的代码：

public static class MapStringDoubleComparator implements Comparator {

    Map<String, Double> base;

    public MapStringDoubleComparator(Map<String, Double> base) {
        this.base = base;
    }

    //note if you want decending in stead of ascending, turn around 1 and -1
    public int compare(Object a, Object b) {
        if ((Double) base.get(a) == (Double) base.get(b)) {
            return 0;
        } else if((Double) base.get(a) < (Double) base.get(b)) {
            return -1;
        }else{
            return 1;
        }
    }
}

这是一个测试用例：

@Test
public void testMapStringDoubleComparator(){
    HashMap<String, Double> unSoretedMap = new HashMap<String, Double>();
    Comparators.MapStringDoubleComparator bvc = new Comparators.MapStringDoubleComparator(
            unSoretedMap);
    TreeMap<String, Double> sorted_map = new TreeMap<String, Double>(bvc);
    //the testdata:
    unSoretedMap.put("D",new Double(67.3));
    unSoretedMap.put("A",new Double(99.5));
    unSoretedMap.put("B",new Double(67.4));
    unSoretedMap.put("C",new Double(67.5));
    unSoretedMap.put("E",new Double(99.5));

    sorted_map.putAll(unSoretedMap);

    Object[] targetKeys={"D","B","C","E","A"};
    Object[] currecntKeys=sorted_map.keySet().toArray();

    assertArrayEquals(targetKeys,currecntKeys);
}

当然，你可以让它更通用，但我只需要一个案例（地图）

使用通用比较器，例如：

final class MapValueComparator<K,V extends Comparable<V>> implements Comparator<K> {
    private final Map<K,V> map;
    
    private MapValueComparator() {
        super();
    }
    
    public MapValueComparator(Map<K,V> map) {
        this();
        this.map = map;
    }
        
    public int compare(K o1, K o2) {
        return map.get(o1).compareTo(map.get(o2));
    }
}
