Reference<? extends T> poll ()
Polls this queue to see if a reference object is available. If one is available without further delay then it is removed from the queue and returned. Otherwise this method immediately returns null.
Returns | |
---|---|
Reference<? extends T> |
A reference object, if one was immediately available,
otherwise null
|
Reference<? extends T> remove (long timeout)
Removes the next reference object in this queue, blocking until either one becomes available or the given timeout period expires.
This method does not offer real-time guarantees: It schedules the
timeout as if by invoking the wait(long)
method.
Parameters | |
---|---|
timeout |
long :
If positive, block for up to timeout
milliseconds while waiting for a reference to be
added to this queue. If zero, block indefinitely. |
Returns | |
---|---|
Reference<? extends T> |
A reference object, if one was available within the specified
timeout period, otherwise null |
Throws | |
---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
If the value of the timeout argument is negative |
InterruptedException |
If the timeout wait is interrupted |
Reference<? extends T> remove ()
Removes the next reference object in this queue, blocking until one becomes available.
Returns | |
---|---|
Reference<? extends T> |
A reference object, blocking until one becomes available |
Throws | |
---|---|
InterruptedException |
If the wait is interrupted |
