All Implemented Interfaces:
Channel, Puttable, Takable

public class LinkedQueue
extends java.lang.Object
implements Channel

A linked list based channel implementation. The algorithm avoids contention between puts and takes when the queue is not empty. Normally a put and a take can proceed simultaneously. (Although it does not allow multiple concurrent puts or takes.) This class tends to perform more efficently than other Channel implementations in producer/consumer applications.

Field Detail

head_

protected LinkedNode head_
Dummy header node of list. The first actual node, if it exists, is always at head_.next. After each take, the old first node becomes the head.


putLock_

protected final java.lang.Object putLock_
Helper monitor for managing access to last node.


last_

protected LinkedNode last_
The last node of list. Put() appends to list, so modifies last_


waitingForTake_

protected int waitingForTake_
The number of threads waiting for a take. Notifications are provided in put only if greater than zero. The bookkeeping is worth it here since in reasonably balanced usages, the notifications will hardly ever be necessary, so the call overhead to notify can be eliminated.

insert

protected void insert(java.lang.Object x)
Main mechanics for put/offer


extract

protected java.lang.Object extract()
Main mechanics for take/poll


put

public void put(java.lang.Object x)
         throws java.lang.InterruptedException
Description copied from interface: Channel
Place item in the channel, possibly waiting indefinitely until it can be accepted. Channels implementing the BoundedChannel subinterface are generally guaranteed to block on puts upon reaching capacity, but other implementations may or may not block.

Specified by:
put in interface Channel

offer

public boolean offer(java.lang.Object x,
                     long msecs)
              throws java.lang.InterruptedException
Description copied from interface: Channel
Place item in channel only if it can be accepted within msecs milliseconds. The time bound is interpreted in a coarse-grained, best-effort fashion.

Specified by:
offer in interface Channel

take

public java.lang.Object take()
                      throws java.lang.InterruptedException
Description copied from interface: Channel
Return and remove an item from channel, possibly waiting indefinitely until such an item exists.

Specified by:
take in interface Channel

peek

public java.lang.Object peek()
Description copied from interface: Channel
Return, but do not remove object at head of Channel, or null if it is empty.

Specified by:
peek in interface Channel

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()

poll

public java.lang.Object poll(long msecs)
                      throws java.lang.InterruptedException
Description copied from interface: Channel
Return and remove an item from channel only if one is available within msecs milliseconds. The time bound is interpreted in a coarse grained, best-effort fashion.

Specified by:
poll in interface Channel
