java.util.concurrent
Class SynchronousQueue<E>

java.lang.Object
  java.util.AbstractCollection<E>
      java.util.AbstractQueue<E>
          java.util.concurrent.SynchronousQueue<E>


Type Parameters:: E - the type of elements held in this collection

All Implemented Interfaces:: Serializable, Iterable<E>, Collection<E>, BlockingQueue<E>, Queue<E>

public class SynchronousQueue<E>
extends AbstractQueue<E>
implements BlockingQueue<E>, Serializable
extends AbstractQueue<E>
implements BlockingQueue<E>, Serializable

A blocking queue in which each insert operation must wait for a corresponding remove operation by another thread, and vice versa. A synchronous queue does not have any internal capacity, not even a capacity of one. You cannot peek at a synchronous queue because an element is only present when you try to remove it; you cannot insert an element (using any method) unless another thread is trying to remove it; you cannot iterate as there is nothing to iterate. The head of the queue is the element that the first queued inserting thread is trying to add to the queue; if there is no such queued thread then no element is available for removal and poll() will return null. For purposes of other Collection methods (for example contains), a SynchronousQueue acts as an empty collection. This queue does not permit null elements.

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.

Attempts to drain a queue to itself result in IllegalArgumentException. Further, the behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified collection is modified while the operation is in progress.

Specified by:: drainTo in interface BlockingQueue<E>

Parameters:: c - the collection to transfer elements into
Returns:: the number of elements transferred
Throws:: UnsupportedOperationException - if addition of elements is not supported by the specified collection; ClassCastException - if the class of an element of this queue prevents it from being added to the specified collection; NullPointerException - if the specified collection is null; IllegalArgumentException - if the specified collection is this queue, or some property of an element of this queue prevents it from being added to the specified collection

drainTo

public int drainTo(Collection<? super E> c,
                   int maxElements)

Description copied from interface: BlockingQueue

Removes at most the given number of available elements from this queue and adds them to the given collection. A failure encountered while attempting to add elements to collection c may result in elements being in neither, either or both collections when the associated exception is thrown. Attempts to drain a queue to itself result in IllegalArgumentException. Further, the behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified collection is modified while the operation is in progress.

Specified by:: drainTo in interface BlockingQueue<E>

Parameters:: c - the collection to transfer elements into; maxElements - the maximum number of elements to transfer
Returns:: the number of elements transferred
Throws:: UnsupportedOperationException - if addition of elements is not supported by the specified collection; ClassCastException - if the class of an element of this queue prevents it from being added to the specified collection; NullPointerException - if the specified collection is null; IllegalArgumentException - if the specified collection is this queue, or some property of an element of this queue prevents it from being added to the specified collection
