LinkedHashMap serialization/deserialization

Question

I have a Map<Integer,List<SomeObject> map = new LinkedHashMap<Integer,List<SomeObject>>(); I was added elements in this order :

map.put(32,List Of SomeObjects);
map.put(2,List Of SomeObjects);
map.put(3,List Of SomeObjects);

after invoking this method via URL (Using restApi) I got map key in this order :

{2,List Of SomeObjects}
{3,List Of SomeObjects}
{32,List Of SomeObjects}

Can anyone tell me how to solve this problem ? Order of output is not order of input

What exactly is the problem here? Is it the different ordering? — Evan Knowles, May 22 '14 at 08:03
Use a [SortedMap](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/SortedMap.html). — Jens, May 22 '14 at 08:07
I don't want output to be sorted. I want output in that order which is input — Chala, May 22 '14 at 08:08
I will use my telepathic powers and guess that what the OP means is that he is invoking a REST method to which he passes the entire list (not a different invocation for each item), and in the process the rest API reorders the list. Otherwise it makes little sense. — SJuan76, May 22 '14 at 08:41

In Java's console output is same as input , but when using URL there is problem – Chala May 22 '14 at 08:12
I do not understand your comment. – Scary Wombat May 22 '14 at 08:14

This won't help - insertion order (what you get if you pass `false`) is the default for the other constructors. – Ian Roberts May 22 '14 at 08:18
@IanRoberts Thanks Ian. Waiting for further explanation from the OP. – Scary Wombat May 22 '14 at 08:19
