在TreeMap中，键按自然顺序排序。例如，如果您对数字进行排序，（注意4的排序）

{0=0, 10=10, 20=20, 30=30, 4=4, 50=50, 60=60, 70=70}

要解决这个问题，在Java8中，首先检查字符串长度，然后进行比较。

Map<String, String> sortedMap = new TreeMap<>Comparator.comparingInt(String::length)
.thenComparing(Function.identity()));

{0=0, 4=4, 10=10, 20=20, 30=30, 50=50, 60=60, 70=70}

使用LinkedList

//Create a list by HashMap
List<Map.Entry<String, Double>> list = new LinkedList<>(hashMap.entrySet());

//Sorting the list
Collections.sort(list, new Comparator<Map.Entry<String, Double>>() {
    public int compare(Map.Entry<String, Double> o1, Map.Entry<String, Double> o2) {
        return (o1.getValue()).compareTo(o2.getValue());
    }
});

//put data from sorted list to hashmap
HashMap<String, Double> sortedData = new LinkedHashMap<>();
for (Map.Entry<String, Double> data : list) {
    sortedData.put(data.getKey(), data.getValue());
}

System.out.print(sortedData);

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());
  }
}

对键进行排序需要Comparator为每个比较查找每个值。一个更具可扩展性的解决方案将直接使用entrySet，因为这样每次比较都会立即获得该值（尽管我没有用数字来支持）。

这是这样一件事的通用版本：

public static <K, V extends Comparable<? super V>> List<K> getKeysSortedByValue(Map<K, V> map) {
    final int size = map.size();
    final List<Map.Entry<K, V>> list = new ArrayList<Map.Entry<K, V>>(size);
    list.addAll(map.entrySet());
    final ValueComparator<V> cmp = new ValueComparator<V>();
    Collections.sort(list, cmp);
    final List<K> keys = new ArrayList<K>(size);
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
        keys.set(i, list.get(i).getKey());
    }
    return keys;
}

private static final class ValueComparator<V extends Comparable<? super V>>
                                     implements Comparator<Map.Entry<?, V>> {
    public int compare(Map.Entry<?, V> o1, Map.Entry<?, V> o2) {
        return o1.getValue().compareTo(o2.getValue());
    }
}

有一些方法可以减少上述解决方案的内存旋转。例如，创建的第一个ArrayList可以重新用作返回值；这将需要抑制一些泛型警告，但对于可重用的库代码来说，这可能是值得的。此外，Comparator不必在每次调用时重新分配。

这里有一个更有效但不太吸引人的版本：

public static <K, V extends Comparable<? super V>> List<K> getKeysSortedByValue2(Map<K, V> map) {
    final int size = map.size();
    final List reusedList = new ArrayList(size);
    final List<Map.Entry<K, V>> meView = reusedList;
    meView.addAll(map.entrySet());
    Collections.sort(meView, SINGLE);
    final List<K> keyView = reusedList;
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
        keyView.set(i, meView.get(i).getKey());
    }
    return keyView;
}

private static final Comparator SINGLE = new ValueComparator();

最后，如果您需要连续访问已排序的信息（而不是偶尔排序一次），可以使用额外的多重映射。如果你需要更多细节，请告诉我。。。

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
    }
