问题:

I use HashMap<String, ArrayList<String>> in Java.

When input value is comes,

For example, input value is [1, "stack"], [2, "over"], [1, "flow"].....

I want to enter value [1, ["stack", "flow"]], [2, "over"] in HashMap.

But key value is duplicate. So, HashMap was overwrite.

So, What can I do?

回答1:

Try a Guava Multimap:

The traditional way to represent a graph in Java is Map<V, Set<V>>, which is awkward in a number of ways. Guava's Multimap framework makes it easy to handle a mapping from keys to multiple values.

A ListMultimap will map keys to a List of values, keeping track of their order, while a SetMultimap will map keys to a Set of distinct values.

回答2:

Call get on the Map. If it returns a List (Set may be more appropriate) add to that. If it returns null, create a collection, add the value, put it in the map.

Better, use some third-party multimap.
