java hashmap word count from a text file

Question

I am trying to code to read info from a text file, I need to find out how many times each word separated by white space occurs. I then need to output in alphabetical order with the count of each word. I am looking to use a TreeMap, keySet() and an Iterator. My code is very incomplete and I am quite stuck.

    import java.util.HashMap;
    import java.util.Map

    public class WordCount<E extends Comparable<E>> {

        private static Map<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();

        static {
            fillMap(map, "Alice.txt");
        }

        private static void fillMap(Map<String, Integer> map, String fileName) {


       }

}

This is the exact code that you asked for. It will Save every Word and count them. if the word it gets didn't exist, it will add it to the Map, if it did, it will increase its value. At the end, it will print all keys and values. use it, if you got any question, ask.

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.TreeMap;

    public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {

        Map m1 = new HashMap();

        try (BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("file.txt"))) {
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
            String line = br.readLine();

            while (line != null) {
                String[] words = line.split(" ");//those are your words
                for (int i = 0; i < words.length; i++) {
                    if (m1.get(words[i]) == null) {
                        m1.put(words[i], 1);
                    } else {
                        int newValue = Integer.valueOf(String.valueOf(m1.get(words[i])));
                        newValue++;
                        m1.put(words[i], newValue);
                    }
                }
                sb.append(System.lineSeparator());
                line = br.readLine();
            }
        }
        Map<String, String> sorted = new TreeMap<String, String>(m1);
        for (Object key : sorted.keySet()) {
            System.out.println("Word: " + key + "\tCounts: " + m1.get(key));
        }
    }
