commons集合库包含一个名为TreeBidiMap的解决方案。或者，你可以看看谷歌收藏API。它有你可以使用的TreeMultimap。

如果你不想使用这些框架。。。它们带有源代码。

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。

迟到。

随着Java-8的出现，我们可以以非常简单/简洁的方式使用流进行数据操作。您可以使用流按值对映射条目进行排序，并创建一个LinkedHashMap，以保留插入顺序迭代。

Eg:

LinkedHashMap sortedByValueMap = map.entrySet().stream()
                .sorted(comparing(Entry<Key,Value>::getValue).thenComparing(Entry::getKey))     //first sorting by Value, then sorting by Key(entries with same value)
                .collect(LinkedHashMap::new,(map,entry) -> map.put(entry.getKey(),entry.getValue()),LinkedHashMap::putAll);

对于反向排序，请替换：

comparing(Entry<Key,Value>::getValue).thenComparing(Entry::getKey)

with

comparing(Entry<Key,Value>::getValue).thenComparing(Entry::getKey).reversed()

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}
