Class DelayQueue<E extends Delayed>

  • Type Parameters:
    E - the type of elements held in this collection
    All Implemented Interfaces:
    Iterable<E>, Collection<E>, BlockingQueue<E>, Queue<E>


    public class DelayQueue<E extends Delayed>
    extends AbstractQueue<E>
    implements BlockingQueue<E>
    An unbounded blocking queue of Delayed elements, in which an element can only be taken when its delay has expired. The head of the queue is that Delayed element whose delay expired furthest in the past. If no delay has expired there is no head and poll will return null. Expiration occurs when an element's getDelay(TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS) method returns a value less than or equal to zero. Even though unexpired elements cannot be removed using take or poll, they are otherwise treated as normal elements. For example, the size method returns the count of both expired and unexpired elements. This queue does not permit null elements.

    This class and its iterator implement all of the optional methods of the Collection and Iterator interfaces. The Iterator provided in method iterator() is not guaranteed to traverse the elements of the DelayQueue in any particular order.

    This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

        Specified by:
        size in interface Collection<E extends Delayed>

      • drainTo

        public int drainTo(Collection<? super E> c)
        Description copied from interface: BlockingQueue
        Removes all available elements from this queue and adds them to the given collection. This operation may be more efficient than repeatedly polling this queue. 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 extends Delayed>
        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 extends Delayed>
        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
      • clear

        public void clear()
        Atomically removes all of the elements from this delay queue. The queue will be empty after this call returns. Elements with an unexpired delay are not waited for; they are simply discarded from the queue.
        Specified by:
        clear in interface Collection<E extends Delayed>
        Overrides:
        clear in class AbstractQueue<E extends Delayed>
      • remainingCapacity

        public int remainingCapacity()
        Always returns Integer.MAX_VALUE because a DelayQueue is not capacity constrained.
        Specified by:
        remainingCapacity in interface BlockingQueue<E extends Delayed>
        Returns:
        Integer.MAX_VALUE
      • toArray

        public Object[] toArray()
        Returns an array containing all of the elements in this queue. The returned array elements are in no particular order.

        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.

        Specified by:
        toArray in interface Collection<E extends Delayed>
        Overrides:
        toArray in class AbstractCollection<E extends Delayed>
        Returns:
        an array containing all of the elements in this queue
      • toArray

        public <T> T[] toArray(T[] a)
        Returns an array containing all of the elements in this queue; the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array. The returned array elements are in no particular order. If the queue fits in the specified array, it is returned therein. Otherwise, a new array is allocated with the runtime type of the specified array and the size of this queue.

        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.

        The following code can be used to dump a delay queue into a newly allocated array of Delayed:

          Delayed[] a = q.toArray(new Delayed[0]);
        Note that toArray(new Object[0]) is identical in function to toArray().
        Specified by:
        toArray in interface Collection<E extends Delayed>
        Overrides:
        toArray in class AbstractCollection<E extends Delayed>
        Type Parameters:
        T - the runtime type of the array to contain the collection
        Parameters:
        a - the array into which the elements of the queue are to be stored, if it is big enough; otherwise, a new array of the same runtime type is allocated for this purpose
        Returns:
        an array containing all of the elements in this queue
        Throws:
        ArrayStoreException - if the runtime type of the specified array is not a supertype of the runtime type of every element in this queue
        NullPointerException - if the specified array is null
      • remove

        public boolean remove(Object o)
        Removes a single instance of the specified element from this queue, if it is present, whether or not it has expired.
        Specified by:
        remove in interface Collection<E extends Delayed>
        Specified by:
        remove in interface BlockingQueue<E extends Delayed>
        Overrides:
        remove in class AbstractCollection<E extends Delayed>
        Parameters:
        o - element to be removed from this collection, if present
        Returns:
        true if an element was removed as a result of this call
