Underscore-java can build hashmap.

Map value = U.objectBuilder()
        .add("firstName", "John")
        .add("lastName", "Smith")
        .add("age", 25)
        .add("address", U.arrayBuilder()
            .add(U.objectBuilder()
                .add("streetAddress", "21 2nd Street")
                .add("city", "New York")
                .add("state", "NY")
                .add("postalCode", "10021")))
        .add("phoneNumber", U.arrayBuilder()
            .add(U.objectBuilder()
                .add("type", "home")
                .add("number", "212 555-1234"))
            .add(U.objectBuilder()
                .add("type", "fax")
                .add("number", "646 555-4567")))
        .build();
    // {firstName=John, lastName=Smith, age=25, address=[{streetAddress=21 2nd Street,
    // city=New York, state=NY, postalCode=10021}], phoneNumber=[{type=home, number=212 555-1234},
    // {type=fax, number=646 555-4567}]}
