我不知道为什么我会陷入这样一个问题：聊天列表没有按最后一条消息的时间或最近一条消息排序。我试过储存 timestamp 在数据库和orderchildby时间戳中，但它仍然不工作。
这是我在 firebaseDatabase :

val timeAgo = Date().time

    val myTimeMap = HashMap<String, Any?>()
        myTimeMap["timestamp"] = timeAgo
        myTimeMap["id"] = friendId

    val friendTimeMap = HashMap<String, Any?>()
        friendTimeMap["timestamp"] = timeAgo
        friendTimeMap["id"] = currentUserID

    val chatListSenderReference = dbRef.child("ChatList").child(currentUserID).child(friendId)
        chatListSenderReference.keepSynced(true)
        chatListSenderReference.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(object : ValueEventListener{
              override fun onCancelled(p0: DatabaseError) {
              }
              override fun onDataChange(p0: DataSnapshot) {
                       if(!p0.exists()){
                             chatListSenderReference.updateChildren(friendTimeMap)
                       }
    val chatListReceiverReference = dbRef.child("ChatList").child(friendId).child(currentUserID)
        chatListReceiverReference.updateChildren(myTimeMap)
        }
    })

在recyclerview中检索聊天列表

mUsers = ArrayList()
        val userRef = dbRef.child("ChatList").child(currentUserID).orderByChild("timestamp")
        userRef.addValueEventListener(object : ValueEventListener
        {
            override fun onCancelled(error: DatabaseError) {
            }

            override fun onDataChange(snapshot: DataSnapshot)
            {
                (mUsers as ArrayList).clear()
                snapshot.children.forEach {
                    val userUid = it.key
                    if (userUid != null) {
                        (mUsers as ArrayList).add(User(uid = userUid))
                    }
                }
                retrieveGroupChatList()
                chatListAdapter?.notifyDataSetChanged()
                chatListAdapter = context?.let { ChatListAdapter(it, (mUsers as ArrayList<User>), true) }
                recyclerViewChatList.adapter = chatListAdapter
            }
        })

这是数据库的图片，每次我发送或接收消息时，时间戳都会得到更新。
