E - the type of elements held in this collectionpublic class SynchronousQueue<E> extends AbstractQueue<E> implements BlockingQueue<E>, Serializable
Synchronous queues are similar to rendezvous channels used in CSP and Ada. They are well suited for handoff designs, in which an object running in one thread must sync up with an object running in another thread in order to hand it some information, event, or task.
This class supports an optional fairness policy for ordering waiting producer and consumer threads. By default, this ordering is not guaranteed. However, a queue constructed with fairness set to true grants threads access in FIFO order.
This class and its iterator implement all of the
optional methods of the Collection and Iterator interfaces.
This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.
| Constructor and Description |
|---|
SynchronousQueue()
Creates a SynchronousQueue with nonfair access policy.
|
SynchronousQueue(boolean fair)
Creates a SynchronousQueue with the specified fairness policy.
|
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
void |
clear()
Does nothing.
|
boolean |
contains(Object o)
Always returns false.
|
boolean |
containsAll(Collection<?> c)
Returns false unless the given collection is empty.
|
int |
drainTo(Collection<? super E> c)
Removes all available elements from this queue and adds them
to the given collection.
|
int |
drainTo(Collection<? super E> c,
int maxElements)
Removes at most the given number of available elements from
this queue and adds them to the given collection.
|
boolean |
isEmpty()
Always returns true.
|
Iterator<E> |
iterator()
Returns an empty iterator in which hasNext always returns
false.
|
boolean |
offer(E e)
Inserts the specified element into this queue, if another thread is
waiting to receive it.
|
boolean |
offer(E o,
long timeout,
TimeUnit unit)
Inserts the specified element into this queue, waiting if necessary
up to the specified wait time for another thread to receive it.
|
E |
peek()
Always returns null.
|
E |
poll()
Retrieves and removes the head of this queue, if another thread
is currently making an element available.
|
E |
poll(long timeout,
TimeUnit unit)
Retrieves and removes the head of this queue, waiting
if necessary up to the specified wait time, for another thread
to insert it.
|
void |
put(E o)
Adds the specified element to this queue, waiting if necessary for
another thread to receive it.
|
int |
remainingCapacity()
Always returns zero.
|
boolean |
remove(Object o)
Always returns false.
|
boolean |
removeAll(Collection<?> c)
Always returns false.
|
boolean |
retainAll(Collection<?> c)
Always returns false.
|
int |
size()
Always returns zero.
|
E |
take()
Retrieves and removes the head of this queue, waiting if necessary
for another thread to insert it.
|
Object[] |
toArray()
Returns a zero-length array.
|
<T> T[] |
toArray(T[] a)
Sets the zeroeth element of the specified array to null
(if the array has non-zero length) and returns it.
