Method Detail

add

public boolean add(E o)

Adds the specified element to this queue. This implementation returns true if offer succeeds, else throws an IllegalStateException.

Specified by:

add in interface Collection<E>

Overrides:

add in class AbstractCollection<E>

Parameters:

o - the element

Returns:

true (as per the general contract of Collection.add).

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the specified element is null

IllegalStateException - if element cannot be added

remove

public E remove()

Retrieves and removes the head of this queue. This implementation returns the result of poll unless the queue is empty.

Specified by:

remove in interface Queue<E>

Returns:

the head of this queue.

Throws:

NoSuchElementException - if this queue is empty.

element

public E element()

Retrieves, but does not remove, the head of this queue. This implementation returns the result of peek unless the queue is empty.

Specified by:

element in interface Queue<E>

Returns:

the head of this queue.

Throws:

NoSuchElementException - if this queue is empty.

clear

public void clear()

Removes all of the elements from this collection. The collection will be empty after this call returns.

This implementation repeatedly invokes poll until it returns null.

Specified by:

clear in interface Collection<E>

Overrides:

clear in class AbstractCollection<E>

addAll

public boolean addAll(Collection<? extends E> c)

Adds all of the elements in the specified collection to this queue. Attempts to addAll of 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.

This implementation iterates over the specified collection, and adds each element returned by the iterator to this collection, in turn. A runtime exception encountered while trying to add an element (including, in particular, a null element) may result in only some of the elements having been successfully added when the associated exception is thrown.

Specified by:

addAll in interface Collection<E>

Overrides:

addAll in class AbstractCollection<E>

Parameters:

c - collection whose elements are to be added to this collection.

Returns:

true if this collection changed as a result of the call.

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the specified collection or any of its elements are null.

IllegalArgumentException - if c is this queue.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Specified by:

equals in interface Collection<E>

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Specified by:

hashCode in interface Collection<E>

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object
