我对Java比较陌生,经常发现需要对值进行Map<Key,Value>排序。

由于这些值不是唯一的,我发现自己将keySet转换为一个数组,并使用自定义比较器通过数组排序对该数组进行排序,该比较器根据与该键关联的值进行排序。

有没有更简单的方法?

这可以用java8非常容易地实现

public static LinkedHashMap<Integer, String> sortByValue(HashMap<Integer, String> map) {

        List<Map.Entry<Integer, String>> list = new ArrayList<>(map.entrySet());
        list.sort(Map.Entry.comparingByValue());
        LinkedHashMap<Integer, String> sortedMap = new LinkedHashMap<>();
        list.forEach(e -> sortedMap.put(e.getKey(), e.getValue()));
        return sortedMap;
    }

其他回答

根据上下文,使用java.util.LinkedHashMap<T>来记住项目在映射中的放置顺序。否则,如果您需要根据值的自然排序对值进行排序,我建议您维护一个单独的List,该List可以通过Collections.sort()进行排序。

当然,Stephen的解决方案真的很棒,但对于那些不会使用Guava的人来说:

这是我的解决方案,用于按值对地图进行排序。此解决方案处理两倍相同值等情况。。。

// If you want to sort a map by value, and if there can be twice the same value:

// here is your original map
Map<String,Integer> mapToSortByValue = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
mapToSortByValue.put("A", 3);
mapToSortByValue.put("B", 1);
mapToSortByValue.put("C", 3);
mapToSortByValue.put("D", 5);
mapToSortByValue.put("E", -1);
mapToSortByValue.put("F", 1000);
mapToSortByValue.put("G", 79);
mapToSortByValue.put("H", 15);

// Sort all the map entries by value
Set<Map.Entry<String,Integer>> set = new TreeSet<Map.Entry<String,Integer>>(
        new Comparator<Map.Entry<String,Integer>>(){
            @Override
            public int compare(Map.Entry<String,Integer> obj1, Map.Entry<String,Integer> obj2) {
                Integer val1 = obj1.getValue();
                Integer val2 = obj2.getValue();
                // DUPLICATE VALUE CASE
                // If the values are equals, we can't return 0 because the 2 entries would be considered
                // as equals and one of them would be deleted (because we use a set, no duplicate, remember!)
                int compareValues = val1.compareTo(val2);
                if ( compareValues == 0 ) {
                    String key1 = obj1.getKey();
                    String key2 = obj2.getKey();
                    int compareKeys = key1.compareTo(key2);
                    if ( compareKeys == 0 ) {
                        // what you return here will tell us if you keep REAL KEY-VALUE duplicates in your set
                        // if you want to, do whatever you want but do not return 0 (but don't break the comparator contract!)
                        return 0;
                    }
                    return compareKeys;
                }
                return compareValues;
            }
        }
);
set.addAll(mapToSortByValue.entrySet());


// OK NOW OUR SET IS SORTED COOL!!!!

// And there's nothing more to do: the entries are sorted by value!
for ( Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : set ) {
    System.out.println("Set entries: " + entry.getKey() + " -> " + entry.getValue());
}




// But if you add them to an hashmap
Map<String,Integer> myMap = new HashMap<String,Integer>();
// When iterating over the set the order is still good in the println...
for ( Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : set ) {
    System.out.println("Added to result map entries: " + entry.getKey() + " " + entry.getValue());
    myMap.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
}

// But once they are in the hashmap, the order is not kept!
for ( Integer value : myMap.values() ) {
    System.out.println("Result map values: " + value);
}
// Also this way doesn't work:
// Logic because the entryset is a hashset for hashmaps and not a treeset
// (and even if it was a treeset, it would be on the keys only)
for ( Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : myMap.entrySet() ) {
    System.out.println("Result map entries: " + entry.getKey() + " -> " + entry.getValue());
}


// CONCLUSION:
// If you want to iterate on a map ordered by value, you need to remember:
// 1) Maps are only sorted by keys, so you can't sort them directly by value
// 2) So you simply CAN'T return a map to a sortMapByValue function
// 3) You can't reverse the keys and the values because you have duplicate values
//    This also means you can't neither use Guava/Commons bidirectionnal treemaps or stuff like that

// SOLUTIONS
// So you can:
// 1) only sort the values which is easy, but you loose the key/value link (since you have duplicate values)
// 2) sort the map entries, but don't forget to handle the duplicate value case (like i did)
// 3) if you really need to return a map, use a LinkedHashMap which keep the insertion order

希望它能帮助一些人

最干净的方法是利用集合对值进行排序:

Map<String, Long> map = new HashMap<String, Long>();
// populate with data to sort on Value
// use datastructure designed for sorting

Queue queue = new PriorityQueue( map.size(), new MapComparable() );
queue.addAll( map.entrySet() );

// get a sorted map
LinkedHashMap<String, Long> linkedMap = new LinkedHashMap<String, Long>();

for (Map.Entry<String, Long> entry; (entry = queue.poll())!=null;) {
    linkedMap.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
}

public static class MapComparable implements Comparator<Map.Entry<String, Long>>{

  public int compare(Entry<String, Long> e1, Entry<String, Long> e2) {
    return e1.getValue().compareTo(e2.getValue());
  }
}

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));
    }
}

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。
