Question

How to retrieve an element from HashMap by its position, is it possible at all?

Answer 1

Use LinkedHashMap and use this function.

private LinkedHashMap map = new LinkedHashMap();

Define like this and.

private Entry getEntry(int id){
        Iterator iterator = map.entrySet().iterator();
        int n = 0;
        while(iterator.hasNext()){
            Entry entry = (Entry) iterator.next();
            if(n == id){
                return entry;
            }
            n ++;
        }
        return null;
    }

The function can return the selected entry.
