这个问题已经有了很多答案，但没有一个能为我提供我想要的，一个返回按关联值排序的键和条目的映射实现，并在映射中修改键和值时维护这个属性。另外两个问题对此提出了具体要求。

我编写了一个通用友好的示例来解决这个用例。此实现不遵守Map接口的所有约定，例如反映原始对象中keySet（）和entrySet（）返回的集合中的值更改和删除。我觉得这样的解决方案太大，无法包含在堆栈溢出的答案中。如果我成功地创建了一个更完整的实现，也许我会将其发布到Github，然后在这个答案的更新版本中链接到它。

重要说明：

此代码可以以多种方式中断。如果您打算使用提供的代码，请务必阅读注释以了解其含义。例如，值不能再通过其键检索。（get始终返回null。）

这似乎比前面所有的都容易得多。按如下方式使用TreeMap：

public class Testing {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        HashMap<String, Double> map = new HashMap<String, Double>();
        ValueComparator bvc = new ValueComparator(map);
        TreeMap<String, Double> sorted_map = new TreeMap<String, Double>(bvc);

        map.put("A", 99.5);
        map.put("B", 67.4);
        map.put("C", 67.4);
        map.put("D", 67.3);

        System.out.println("unsorted map: " + map);
        sorted_map.putAll(map);
        System.out.println("results: " + sorted_map);
    }
}

class ValueComparator implements Comparator<String> {
    Map<String, Double> base;

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

    // Note: this comparator imposes orderings that are inconsistent with
    // equals.
    public int compare(String a, String b) {
        if (base.get(a) >= base.get(b)) {
            return -1;
        } else {
            return 1;
        } // returning 0 would merge keys
    }
}

输出：

unsorted map: {D=67.3, A=99.5, B=67.4, C=67.4}
results: {D=67.3, B=67.4, C=67.4, A=99.5}

这太复杂了。地图不应该按价值排序。最简单的方法是创建自己的类，以满足您的需求。

在下面的示例中，您应该在*所在的位置添加TreeMap比较器。但通过javaAPI，它只提供比较器键，而不提供值。此处所述的所有示例均基于2个地图。一个哈希和一个新树。这很奇怪。

示例：

Map<Driver driver, Float time> map = new TreeMap<Driver driver, Float time>(*);

因此，通过以下方式将地图更改为集合：

ResultComparator rc = new ResultComparator();
Set<Results> set = new TreeSet<Results>(rc);

您将创建类Results，

public class Results {
    private Driver driver;
    private Float time;

    public Results(Driver driver, Float time) {
        this.driver = driver;
        this.time = time;
    }

    public Float getTime() {
        return time;
    }

    public void setTime(Float time) {
        this.time = time;
    }

    public Driver getDriver() {
        return driver;
    }

    public void setDriver (Driver driver) {
        this.driver = driver;
    }
}

以及Comparator类：

public class ResultsComparator implements Comparator<Results> {
    public int compare(Results t, Results t1) {
        if (t.getTime() < t1.getTime()) {
            return 1;
        } else if (t.getTime() == t1.getTime()) {
            return 0;
        } else {
            return -1;
        }
    }
}

这样，您可以轻松添加更多依赖项。

最后一点，我将添加简单迭代器：

Iterator it = set.iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
    Results r = (Results)it.next();
    System.out.println( r.getDriver().toString
        //or whatever that is related to Driver class -getName() getSurname()
        + " "
        + r.getTime()
        );
}

您可以尝试Guava的多功能地图：

TreeMap<Integer, Collection<String>> sortedMap = new TreeMap<>(
        Multimaps.invertFrom(Multimaps.forMap(originalMap), 
        ArrayListMultimap.<Integer, String>create()).asMap());

因此，您将获得从原始值到对应于它们的键集合的映射。即使同一值有多个键，也可以使用此方法。

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
