我合并了user157196和Carter Page的解决方案：

class MapUtil {

    public static <K, V extends Comparable<? super V>> Map<K, V> sortByValue( Map<K, V> map ){
        ValueComparator<K,V> bvc =  new ValueComparator<K,V>(map);
        TreeMap<K,V> sorted_map = new TreeMap<K,V>(bvc);
        sorted_map.putAll(map);
        return sorted_map;
    }

}

class ValueComparator<K, V extends Comparable<? super V>> implements Comparator<K> {

    Map<K, V> base;
    public ValueComparator(Map<K, V> base) {
        this.base = base;
    }

    public int compare(K a, K b) {
        int result = (base.get(a).compareTo(base.get(b)));
        if (result == 0) result=1;
        // returning 0 would merge keys
        return result;
    }
}

如果倾向于使用一个Map数据结构，该结构可以按值进行固有排序，而不必触发任何排序方法或显式传递给实用程序，则以下解决方案可能适用：

（1） org.rools.chance.core.util.ValueSortedMap（JBoss项目）在内部维护两个映射，一个用于查找，另一个用于维护排序值。与之前添加的答案非常相似，但可能是抽象和封装部分（包括复制机制）使其更安全地从外部使用。

(2) http://techblog.molindo.at/2008/11/java-map-sorted-by-value.html避免维护两个映射，而是依赖/扩展Apache Common的LinkedMap。（博客作者注：这里的所有代码都在公共领域）：

// required to access LinkEntry.before and LinkEntry.after
package org.apache.commons.collections.map;

// SNIP: imports

/**
* map implementation based on LinkedMap that maintains a sorted list of
* values for iteration
*/
public class ValueSortedHashMap extends LinkedMap {
    private final boolean _asc;

    // don't use super()!
    public ValueSortedHashMap(final boolean asc) {
        super(DEFAULT_CAPACITY);
        _asc = asc;
    }

    // SNIP: some more constructors with initial capacity and the like

    protected void addEntry(final HashEntry entry, final int hashIndex) {
        final LinkEntry link = (LinkEntry) entry;
        insertSorted(link);
        data[hashIndex] = entry;
    }

    protected void updateEntry(final HashEntry entry, final Object newValue) {
        entry.setValue(newValue);
        final LinkEntry link = (LinkEntry) entry;
        link.before.after = link.after;
        link.after.before = link.before;
        link.after = link.before = null;
        insertSorted(link);
    }

    private void insertSorted(final LinkEntry link) {
        LinkEntry cur = header;
        // iterate whole list, could (should?) be replaced with quicksearch
        // start at end to optimize speed for in-order insertions
        while ((cur = cur.before) != header & amp; & amp; !insertAfter(cur, link)) {}
        link.after = cur.after;
        link.before = cur;
        cur.after.before = link;
        cur.after = link;
    }

    protected boolean insertAfter(final LinkEntry cur, final LinkEntry link) {
        if (_asc) {
            return ((Comparable) cur.getValue())
            .compareTo((V) link.getValue()) & lt; = 0;
        } else {
            return ((Comparable) cur.getValue())
            .compareTo((V) link.getValue()) & gt; = 0;
        }
    }

    public boolean isAscending() {
        return _asc;
    }
}

（3） 编写一个自定义映射或从LinkedHashMap扩展，该映射仅在枚举期间根据需要进行排序（例如，values（）、keyset（）、entryset（））。内部实现/行为是从使用该类的实现/行为中抽象出来的，但在该类的客户端看来，当请求枚举时，值总是被排序的。如果所有的put操作都在枚举之前完成，这个类希望排序只发生一次。排序方法采用了前面对这个问题的一些回答。

public class SortByValueMap<K, V> implements Map<K, V> {

    private boolean isSortingNeeded = false;

    private final Map<K, V> map = new LinkedHashMap<>();

    @Override
    public V put(K key, V value) {
        isSortingNeeded = true;
        return map.put(key, value);
    }

    @Override
    public void putAll(Map<? extends K, ? extends V> map) {
        isSortingNeeded = true;
        map.putAll(map);
    }

    @Override
    public Set<K> keySet() {
        sort();
        return map.keySet();
    }

    @Override
    public Set<Entry<K, V>> entrySet() {
        sort();
        return map.entrySet();
    }

    @Override
    public Collection<V> values() {
        sort();
        return map.values();
    }

    private void sort() {
        if (!isSortingNeeded) {
            return;
        }

        List<Entry<K, V>> list = new ArrayList<>(size());

        for (Iterator<Map.Entry<K, V>> it = map.entrySet().iterator(); it.hasNext();) {
            Map.Entry<K, V> entry = it.next();
            list.add(entry);
            it.remove();
        }

        Collections.sort(list);

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

        isSortingNeeded = false;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        sort();
        return map.toString();
    }
}

（4） Guava提供了ImmutableMap.Builder.orderEntriesByValue（Comparator valueComparator），尽管生成的映射是不可变的：

将此生成器配置为根据指定的比较器。排序顺序是稳定的，也就是说，如果两个条目的值作为等价项进行比较，首先插入的条目将是第一个按照构建映射的迭代顺序。

从…起http://www.programmersheaven.com/download/49349/download.aspx

private static <K, V> Map<K, V> sortByValue(Map<K, V> map) {
    List<Entry<K, V>> list = new LinkedList<>(map.entrySet());
    Collections.sort(list, new Comparator<Object>() {
        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        public int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {
            return ((Comparable<V>) ((Map.Entry<K, V>) (o1)).getValue()).compareTo(((Map.Entry<K, V>) (o2)).getValue());
        }
    });

    Map<K, V> result = new LinkedHashMap<>();
    for (Iterator<Entry<K, V>> it = list.iterator(); it.hasNext();) {
        Map.Entry<K, V> entry = (Map.Entry<K, V>) it.next();
        result.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
    }

    return result;
}

我重写了devinmore的方法，该方法在不使用迭代器的情况下，根据地图的值对其进行排序：

public static Map<K, V> sortMapByValue(Map<K, V> inputMap) {

    Set<Entry<K, V>> set = inputMap.entrySet();
    List<Entry<K, V>> list = new ArrayList<Entry<K, V>>(set);

    Collections.sort(list, new Comparator<Map.Entry<K, V>>()
    {
        @Override
        public int compare(Entry<K, V> o1, Entry<K, V> o2) {
            return (o1.getValue()).compareTo( o2.getValue() );  //Ascending order
        }
    } );

    Map<K, V> sortedMap = new LinkedHashMap<>();

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

    return sortedMap;
}

注意：我们使用LinkedHashMap作为输出映射，因为我们的列表已经按值排序，现在我们应该按照插入键值的顺序将列表存储到输出映射中。因此，如果您使用例如TreeMap作为输出地图，您的地图将再次按地图键排序！

这是主要方法：

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<>();
    map.put("3", "three");
    map.put("1", "one");
    map.put("5", "five");
    System.out.println("Input Map:" + map);
    System.out.println("Sorted Map:" + sortMapByValue(map));
}

最后，这是输出：

Input Map:{1=one, 3=three, 5=five}
Sorted Map:{5=five, 1=one, 3=three}

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。

    ASCENDING,

     */
    DESCENDING
}

对于按关键字排序，我找到了一个更好的TreeMap解决方案（我也会尝试为基于值的排序准备一个解决方案）：

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);
        }};

    Map<String, String> sorted = new TreeMap<String, String>(comparer);
    sorted.putAll(unsorted);
    System.out.println(sorted);
}

输出将是：

｛Abc=Abc_Value，Bcd=Bcd_Value，Cde=Cde_Value｝
