您需要实现自己的Comparator，然后使用它:例如

Arrays.sort(persons, new PersonComparator());

你的比较器可以看起来像这样:

public class PersonComparator implements Comparator<? extends Person> {

  public int compare(Person p1, Person p2) {
     int nameCompare = p1.name.compareToIgnoreCase(p2.name);
     if (nameCompare != 0) {
        return nameCompare;
     } else {
       return Integer.valueOf(p1.age).compareTo(Integer.valueOf(p2.age));
     }
  }
}

比较程序首先比较两个名字，如果它们不相等，就返回比较结果，否则就返回比较两人年龄时的比较结果。

这段代码只是一个草稿:因为这个类是不可变的，你可以考虑为它构建一个单例，而不是为每次排序创建一个新实例。

使用Java 8 Streams方法，在getter上引用方法…

// Create a stream...
var sortedList = persons.stream()
    // sort it (does not sort the original list)...
    .sorted(Comparator.comparing(Person::getName)
                      .thenComparing(Person::getAge));
    // and collect to a new list
    .collect(Collectors.toList());

集合到数组ist也可以:

persons.stream()
    .sorted(Comparator.comparing(Person::getName)
                      .thenComparing(Person::getAge));
    .toArray(String[]::new);

Java 8 Lambda方法……

//Sorts the original list Lambda style
persons.sort((p1, p2) -> {
        if (p1.getName().compareTo(p2.getName()) == 0) {
            return p1.getAge().compareTo(p2.getAge());
        } else {
            return p1.getName().compareTo(p2.getName());
        } 
    });

最后……

// This syntax is similar to the Streams example above, but sorts the original list!!!
persons.sort(Comparator.comparing(Person::getName).thenComparing(Person::getAge));

当使用Guava的ComparisonChain时，我会很小心，因为它会为每个被比较的元素创建一个实例，所以如果你在排序，你会看到N x Log N个比较链的创建，或者如果你在迭代和检查相等，则会有N个实例。

如果可能的话，我会使用最新的Java 8 API或Guava的ordered API创建一个静态比较器，这里是Java 8的一个例子:

import java.util.Comparator;
import static java.util.Comparator.naturalOrder;
import static java.util.Comparator.nullsLast;

private static final Comparator<Person> COMPARATOR = Comparator
  .comparing(Person::getName, nullsLast(naturalOrder()))
  .thenComparingInt(Person::getAge);

@Override
public int compareTo(@NotNull Person other) {
  return COMPARATOR.compare(this, other);
}

以下是如何使用番石榴的订购API: https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/OrderingExplained

对于那些能够使用Java 8流API的人来说，这里有一个更整洁的方法: lambda和排序

我正在寻找相当于c# LINQ:

.ThenBy(...)

我在Comparator上找到了Java 8的机制:

.thenComparing(...)

下面是演示算法的代码片段。

    Comparator<Person> comparator = Comparator.comparing(person -> person.name);
    comparator = comparator.thenComparing(Comparator.comparing(person -> person.age));

请查看上面的链接，以获得更简洁的方法，并解释Java的类型推断如何使其与LINQ相比定义起来更笨拙。

下面是完整的单元测试供参考:

@Test
public void testChainedSorting()
{
    // Create the collection of people:
    ArrayList<Person> people = new ArrayList<>();
    people.add(new Person("Dan", 4));
    people.add(new Person("Andi", 2));
    people.add(new Person("Bob", 42));
    people.add(new Person("Debby", 3));
    people.add(new Person("Bob", 72));
    people.add(new Person("Barry", 20));
    people.add(new Person("Cathy", 40));
    people.add(new Person("Bob", 40));
    people.add(new Person("Barry", 50));

    // Define chained comparators:
    // Great article explaining this and how to make it even neater:
    // http://blog.jooq.org/2014/01/31/java-8-friday-goodies-lambdas-and-sorting/
    Comparator<Person> comparator = Comparator.comparing(person -> person.name);
    comparator = comparator.thenComparing(Comparator.comparing(person -> person.age));

    // Sort the stream:
    Stream<Person> personStream = people.stream().sorted(comparator);

    // Make sure that the output is as expected:
    List<Person> sortedPeople = personStream.collect(Collectors.toList());
    Assert.assertEquals("Andi",  sortedPeople.get(0).name); Assert.assertEquals(2,  sortedPeople.get(0).age);
    Assert.assertEquals("Barry", sortedPeople.get(1).name); Assert.assertEquals(20, sortedPeople.get(1).age);
    Assert.assertEquals("Barry", sortedPeople.get(2).name); Assert.assertEquals(50, sortedPeople.get(2).age);
    Assert.assertEquals("Bob",   sortedPeople.get(3).name); Assert.assertEquals(40, sortedPeople.get(3).age);
    Assert.assertEquals("Bob",   sortedPeople.get(4).name); Assert.assertEquals(42, sortedPeople.get(4).age);
    Assert.assertEquals("Bob",   sortedPeople.get(5).name); Assert.assertEquals(72, sortedPeople.get(5).age);
    Assert.assertEquals("Cathy", sortedPeople.get(6).name); Assert.assertEquals(40, sortedPeople.get(6).age);
    Assert.assertEquals("Dan",   sortedPeople.get(7).name); Assert.assertEquals(4,  sortedPeople.get(7).age);
    Assert.assertEquals("Debby", sortedPeople.get(8).name); Assert.assertEquals(3,  sortedPeople.get(8).age);
    // Andi     : 2
    // Barry    : 20
    // Barry    : 50
    // Bob      : 40
    // Bob      : 42
    // Bob      : 72
    // Cathy    : 40
    // Dan      : 4
    // Debby    : 3
}

/**
 * A person in our system.
 */
public static class Person
{
    /**
     * Creates a new person.
     * @param name The name of the person.
     * @param age The age of the person.
     */
    public Person(String name, int age)
    {
        this.age = age;
        this.name = name;
    }

    /**
     * The name of the person.
     */
    public String name;

    /**
     * The age of the person.
     */
    public int age;

    @Override
    public String toString()
    {
        if (name == null) return super.toString();
        else return String.format("%s : %d", this.name, this.age);
    }
}

让你的person类实现Comparable< person >，然后实现compareTo方法，例如:

public int compareTo(Person o) {
    int result = name.compareToIgnoreCase(o.name);
    if(result==0) {
        return Integer.valueOf(age).compareTo(o.age);
    }
    else {
        return result;
    }
}

它将首先按名称(大小写不敏感)排序，然后按年龄排序。然后可以在Person对象的集合或数组上运行Arrays.sort()或Collections.sort()。

您可以使用通用串行比较器按多个字段对集合进行排序。
