public class Test {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    TreeMap<Integer, String> hm=new TreeMap();
    hm.put(3, "arun singh");
    hm.put(5, "vinay singh");
    hm.put(1, "bandagi singh");
    hm.put(6, "vikram singh");
    hm.put(2, "panipat singh");
    hm.put(28, "jakarta singh");

    ArrayList<String> al=new ArrayList(hm.values());
    Collections.sort(al, new myComparator());

    System.out.println("//sort by values \n");
    for(String obj: al){
        for(Map.Entry<Integer, String> map2:hm.entrySet()){
            if(map2.getValue().equals(obj)){
                System.out.println(map2.getKey()+" "+map2.getValue());
            }
        } 
     }
  }
}

class myComparator implements Comparator{
    @Override
    public int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {
       String o3=(String) o1;
       String o4 =(String) o2;
       return o3.compareTo(o4);
    }   
}

输出，输出=

//sort by values 

3 arun singh
1 bandagi singh
28 jakarta singh
2 panipat singh
6 vikram singh
5 vinay singh

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。

使用java.util.TreeMap。

映射根据其键的自然顺序进行排序，或由创建映射时提供的Comparator进行排序，具体取决于使用的构造函数

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;
}

创建自定义比较器，并在创建新的TreeMap对象时使用它。

class MyComparator implements Comparator<Object> {

    Map<String, Integer> map;

    public MyComparator(Map<String, Integer> map) {
        this.map = map;
    }

    public int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {

        if (map.get(o2) == map.get(o1))
            return 1;
        else
            return ((Integer) map.get(o2)).compareTo((Integer)     
                                                            map.get(o1));

    }
}

在主函数中使用以下代码

    Map<String, Integer> lMap = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
    lMap.put("A", 35);
    lMap.put("B", 75);
    lMap.put("C", 50);
    lMap.put("D", 50);

    MyComparator comparator = new MyComparator(lMap);

    Map<String, Integer> newMap = new TreeMap<String, Integer>(comparator);
    newMap.putAll(lMap);
    System.out.println(newMap);

输出：

{B=75, D=50, C=50, A=35}

这还有一个额外的好处，即可以使用Java8进行升序或降序排序

import static java.util.Comparator.comparingInt;
import static java.util.stream.Collectors.toMap;
import java.util.LinkedHashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.Map.Entry;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;
import java.util.stream.Stream;

class Utils {
    public static Map<String, Integer> sortMapBasedOnValues(Map<String, Integer> map, boolean descending) {
        int multiplyBy = (descending) ? -1: 1;
        Map<String, Integer> sorted =  map.entrySet().stream()
                .sorted(comparingInt(e -> multiplyBy * e.getValue() ))
                .collect(toMap(
                        Map.Entry::getKey, 
                        Map.Entry::getValue,
                        (a, b) -> { throw new AssertionError();},
                        LinkedHashMap::new
                    ));
        return sorted;
    }
}
