java长度排序,Java：按长度排序一个单词列表，然后按字母顺序排列

I am told to have a list of words sorted by length, and those that have the same length are sorted by alphabetical order. This is what I have for the method that does that so far.

public static void doIt(BufferedReader r, PrintWriter w) throws IOException {

TreeMap s = new TreeMap();

ArrayList count = new ArrayList();

String line;

int length;

while ((line = r.readLine()) != null) {

length = line.length();

s.put(line, length);

if (!count.contains(length)){

count.add(length);

}

}

Collections.sort(count);

System.out.println(count);

}

My mindset was to use a TreeMap to keep the String, and the length of the word as the key. I also have an ArrayList that keeps track of all the word's lengths without any duplicates, it's then sorted.

I was hoping to somehow call on the TreeMap for the key value of 5, which would list all the words with 5 letters in it.

I was wondering if I'm on the right track? I've been playing around for over an hour and can't seem to figure out what I should do after this. Am I approaching this from the right angle?

The easiest way would be to write a Comparator. The Comparator would receive two words, and compare them. If the first was shorter than the second, it should return -1. If the second was shorter than the first, it would return 1. If they are the same length, it should call the default String compareTo method. You can then simply sort your list using this custom Comparator.
