BlockingDequepublic interface BlockingDeque implements BlockingQueue, DequeA {@link Deque} that additionally supports blocking operations that wait
for the deque to become non-empty when retrieving an element, and wait for
space to become available in the deque when storing an element.
BlockingDeque methods come in four forms, with different ways
of handling operations that cannot be satisfied immediately, but may be
satisfied at some point in the future:
one throws an exception, the second returns a special value (either
null or false, depending on the operation), the third
blocks the current thread indefinitely until the operation can succeed,
and the fourth blocks for only a given maximum time limit before giving
up. These methods are summarized in the following table:
First Element (Head) |

Like any {@link BlockingQueue}, a BlockingDeque is thread safe,
does not permit null elements, and may (or may not) be
capacity-constrained.
A BlockingDeque implementation may be used directly as a FIFO
BlockingQueue. The methods inherited from the
BlockingQueue interface are precisely equivalent to
BlockingDeque methods as indicated in the following table:
BlockingQueue Method |
Equivalent BlockingDeque Method |
Insert |
{@link #add(Object) add(e)} |
{@link #addLast(Object) addLast(e)} |
{@link #offer(Object) offer(e)} |
{@link #offerLast(Object) offerLast(e)} |
{@link #put(Object) put(e)} |
{@link #putLast(Object) putLast(e)} |
{@link #offer(Object, long, TimeUnit) offer(e, time, unit)} |
{@link #offerLast(Object, long, TimeUnit) offerLast(e, time, unit)} |
Remove |
{@link #remove() remove()} |
{@link #removeFirst() removeFirst()} |
{@link #poll() poll()} |
{@link #pollFirst() pollFirst()} |
{@link #take() take()} |
{@link #takeFirst() takeFirst()} |
{@link #poll(long, TimeUnit) poll(time, unit)} |
{@link #pollFirst(long, TimeUnit) pollFirst(time, unit)} |
Examine |
{@link #element() element()} |
{@link #getFirst() getFirst()} |
{@link #peek() peek()} |
{@link #peekFirst() peekFirst()} |
Memory consistency effects: As with other concurrent
collections, actions in a thread prior to placing an object into a
{@code BlockingDeque}
happen-before
actions subsequent to the access or removal of that element from
the {@code BlockingDeque} in another thread.
This interface is a member of the
Java Collections Framework. |
Methods Summary |
---|
public boolean | add(E e)Inserts the specified element into the queue represented by this deque
(in other words, at the tail of this deque) if it is possible to do so
immediately without violating capacity restrictions, returning
true upon success and throwing an
IllegalStateException if no space is currently available.
When using a capacity-restricted deque, it is generally preferable to
use {@link #offer(Object) offer}.
This method is equivalent to {@link #addLast(Object) addLast}.
| public void | addFirst(E e)Inserts the specified element at the front of this deque if it is
possible to do so immediately without violating capacity restrictions,
throwing an IllegalStateException if no space is currently
available. When using a capacity-restricted deque, it is generally
preferable to use {@link #offerFirst(Object) offerFirst}.
| public void | addLast(E e)Inserts the specified element at the end of this deque if it is
possible to do so immediately without violating capacity restrictions,
throwing an IllegalStateException if no space is currently
available. When using a capacity-restricted deque, it is generally
preferable to use {@link #offerLast(Object) offerLast}.
| public boolean | contains(java.lang.Object o)Returns true if this deque contains the specified element.
More formally, returns true if and only if this deque contains
at least one element e such that o.equals(e).
| public E | element()Retrieves, but does not remove, the head of the queue represented by
this deque (in other words, the first element of this deque).
This method differs from {@link #peek peek} only in that it throws an
exception if this deque is empty.
This method is equivalent to {@link #getFirst() getFirst}.
| public java.util.Iterator | iterator()Returns an iterator over the elements in this deque in proper sequence.
The elements will be returned in order from first (head) to last (tail).
| public boolean | offer(E e)Inserts the specified element into the queue represented by this deque
(in other words, at the tail of this deque) if it is possible to do so
immediately without violating capacity restrictions, returning
true upon success and false if no space is currently
available. When using a capacity-restricted deque, this method is
generally preferable to the {@link #add} method, which can fail to
insert an element only by throwing an exception.
This method is equivalent to {@link #offerLast(Object) offerLast}.
| public boolean | offer(E e, long timeout, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit unit)Inserts the specified element into the queue represented by this deque
(in other words, at the tail of this deque), waiting up to the
specified wait time if necessary for space to become available.
This method is equivalent to
{@link #offerLast(Object,long,TimeUnit) offerLast}.
| public boolean | offerFirst(E e)Inserts the specified element at the front of this deque if it is
possible to do so immediately without violating capacity restrictions,
returning true upon success and false if no space is
currently available.
When using a capacity-restricted deque, this method is generally
preferable to the {@link #addFirst(Object) addFirst} method, which can
fail to insert an element only by throwing an exception.
| public boolean | offerFirst(E e, long timeout, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit unit)Inserts the specified element at the front of this deque,
waiting up to the specified wait time if necessary for space to
become available.
| public boolean | offerLast(E e)Inserts the specified element at the end of this deque if it is
possible to do so immediately without violating capacity restrictions,
returning true upon success and false if no space is
currently available.
When using a capacity-restricted deque, this method is generally
preferable to the {@link #addLast(Object) addLast} method, which can
fail to insert an element only by throwing an exception.
| public boolean | offerLast(E e, long timeout, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit unit)Inserts the specified element at the end of this deque,
waiting up to the specified wait time if necessary for space to
become available.
| public E | peek()Retrieves, but does not remove, the head of the queue represented by
this deque (in other words, the first element of this deque), or
returns null if this deque is empty.
This method is equivalent to {@link #peekFirst() peekFirst}.
| public E | poll()Retrieves and removes the head of the queue represented by this deque
(in other words, the first element of this deque), or returns
null if this deque is empty.
This method is equivalent to {@link #pollFirst()}.
| public E | poll(long timeout, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit unit)Retrieves and removes the head of the queue represented by this deque
(in other words, the first element of this deque), waiting up to the

(in other words, the first element of this deque).
This method differs from {@link #poll poll} only in that it
throws an exception if this deque is empty.
This method is equivalent to {@link #removeFirst() removeFirst}.
| public boolean | remove(java.lang.Object o)Removes the first occurrence of the specified element from this deque.
