你可以这样做:

List<String> yourList = new ArrayList<String>();
Collections.sort(yourList, Collections.reverseOrder());

集合有一个默认的比较器可以帮助你。

另外，如果你想使用一些Java 8的新特性，你可以这样做:

List<String> yourList = new ArrayList<String>();
yourList = yourList.stream().sorted(Collections.reverseOrder()).collect(Collectors.toList());

Collections.sort(testList);
Collections.reverse(testList);

这是你想要的。记住导入集合!

这里是集合的文档。

//Here is sorted List alphabetically with syncronized

package com.mnas.technology.automation.utility;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.Comparator;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.List;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;

/**
 * @author manoj.kumar
 */
public class SynchronizedArrayList {
    static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(SynchronizedArrayList.class.getName());

    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        List<Employee> synchronizedList = Collections.synchronizedList(new ArrayList<Employee>());
        synchronizedList.add(new Employee("Aditya"));
        synchronizedList.add(new Employee("Siddharth"));
        synchronizedList.add(new Employee("Manoj"));
        Collections.sort(synchronizedList, new Comparator() {
            public int compare(Object synchronizedListOne, Object synchronizedListTwo) {
                //use instanceof to verify the references are indeed of the type in question
                return ((Employee) synchronizedListOne).name
                        .compareTo(((Employee) synchronizedListTwo).name);
            }
        }); 
    /*for( Employee sd : synchronizedList) {
    log.info("Sorted Synchronized Array List..."+sd.name);
    }*/

        // when iterating over a synchronized list, we need to synchronize access to the synchronized list
        synchronized (synchronizedList) {
            Iterator<Employee> iterator = synchronizedList.iterator();
            while (iterator.hasNext()) {
                log.info("Sorted Synchronized Array List Items: " + iterator.next().name);
            }
        }

    }
}

class Employee {
    String name;

    Employee(String name) {
        this.name = name;

    }
}

对于您的示例，这将在Java 8中发挥作用

List<Double> testList = new ArrayList();
testList.sort(Comparator.naturalOrder());

但是如果你想要排序对象的一些字段，你可以很容易地通过:

testList.sort(Comparator.comparing(ClassName::getFieldName));

or

 testList.sort(Comparator.comparing(ClassName::getFieldName).reversed());

or

 testList.stream().sorted(Comparator.comparing(ClassName::getFieldName).reversed()).collect(Collectors.toList());

如果列表中包含Comparable元素，可以使用Collections.sort(list)对列表进行排序。否则我建议你像这样实现接口:

public class Circle implements Comparable<Circle> {}

当然，提供你自己的compareTo方法的实现，如下所示:

@Override
    public int compareTo(Circle another) {
        if (this.getD()<another.getD()){
            return -1;
        }else{
            return 1;
        }
    }

然后你可以再次使用collection .sort(list)，因为现在list包含Comparable类型的对象，可以排序。顺序取决于compareTo方法。查看https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/collections/interfaces/order.html了解更多详细信息。

下面的线条应该比较粗

testList.sort(Collections.reverseOrder());
