E
- the type of elements held in this collectionpublic class ConcurrentLinkedQueue<E> extends AbstractQueue<E> implements Queue<E>, Serializable
This implementation employs an efficient "wait-free" algorithm based on one described in Simple, Fast, and Practical Non-Blocking and Blocking Concurrent Queue Algorithms by Maged M. Michael and Michael L. Scott.
Beware that, unlike in most collections, the size method is NOT a constant-time operation. Because of the asynchronous nature of these queues, determining the current number of elements requires a traversal of the elements.
This class and its iterator implement all of the
optional methods of the Collection
and Iterator
interfaces.
Memory consistency effects: As with other concurrent
collections, actions in a thread prior to placing an object into a
ConcurrentLinkedQueue
happen-before
actions subsequent to the access or removal of that element from
the ConcurrentLinkedQueue
in another thread.
This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.
Constructor and Description |
---|
ConcurrentLinkedQueue()
Creates a ConcurrentLinkedQueue that is initially empty.
|
ConcurrentLinkedQueue(Collection<? extends E> c)
Creates a ConcurrentLinkedQueue
initially containing the elements of the given collection,
added in traversal order of the collection's iterator.
|
Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
---|---|
boolean |
add(E e)
Inserts the specified element at the tail of this queue.
|
boolean |
contains(Object o)
Returns true if this queue contains the specified element.
|
boolean |
isEmpty()
Returns true if this queue contains no elements.
|
Iterator<E> |
iterator()
Returns an iterator over the elements in this queue in proper sequence.
|
boolean |
offer(E e)
Inserts the specified element at the tail of this queue.
|
E |
peek()
Retrieves, but does not remove, the head of this queue,
or returns null if this queue is empty.
|
E |
poll()
Retrieves and removes the head of this queue,
or returns null if this queue is empty.
|
boolean |
remove(Object o)
Removes a single instance of the specified element from this queue,
if it is present.
|
int |
size()
Returns the number of elements in this queue.
|
Object[] |
toArray()
Returns an array containing all of the elements in this queue, in
proper sequence.
|
<T> T[] |
toArray(T[] a)
Returns an array containing all of the elements in this queue, in
proper sequence; the runtime type of the returned array is that of
the specified array.

The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are maintained by this queue. (In other words, this method must allocate a new array). The caller is thus free to modify the returned array.
This method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs.

public <T> T[] toArray(T[] a)
If this queue fits in the specified array with room to spare (i.e., the array has more elements than this queue), the element in the array immediately following the end of the queue is set to null.
Like the toArray()
method, this method acts as bridge between
array-based and collection-based APIs. Further, this method allows
precise control over the runtime type of the output array, and may,
under certain circumstances, be used to save allocation costs.
Suppose x is a queue known to contain only strings. The following code can be used to dump the queue into a newly allocated array of String:
String[] y = x.toArray(new String[0]);Note that toArray(new Object[0]) is identical in function to toArray().
