这种方法正好能达到目的。（“挫折”是Values必须实现java.util.Comparable接口）

  /**

 * Sort a map according to values.

 * @param <K> the key of the map.
 * @param <V> the value to sort according to.
 * @param mapToSort the map to sort.

 * @return a map sorted on the values.

 */ 
public static <K, V extends Comparable< ? super V>> Map<K, V>
sortMapByValues(final Map <K, V> mapToSort)
{
    List<Map.Entry<K, V>> entries =
        new ArrayList<Map.Entry<K, V>>(mapToSort.size());  

    entries.addAll(mapToSort.entrySet());

    Collections.sort(entries,
                     new Comparator<Map.Entry<K, V>>()
    {
        @Override
        public int compare(
               final Map.Entry<K, V> entry1,
               final Map.Entry<K, V> entry2)
        {
            return entry1.getValue().compareTo(entry2.getValue());
        }
    });      

    Map<K, V> sortedMap = new LinkedHashMap<K, V>();      

    for (Map.Entry<K, V> entry : entries)
    {
        sortedMap.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());

    }      

    return sortedMap;

}

主要问题。如果您使用第一个答案（Google将您带到这里），请更改比较器以添加等号子句，否则无法按键从sorted_map中获取值：

public int compare(String a, String b) {
        if (base.get(a) > base.get(b)) {
            return 1;
        } else if (base.get(a) < base.get(b)){
            return -1;
        } 

        return 0;
        // returning 0 would merge keys
    }

对于Java 8，您可以使用streams api以一种明显不那么冗长的方式来实现：

Map<K, V> sortedMap = map.entrySet().stream()
                         .sorted(Entry.comparingByValue())
                         .collect(Collectors.toMap(Entry::getKey, Entry::getValue, (e1, e2) -> e1, LinkedHashMap::new));

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()

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
