Name

LinkedBlockingQueue<E>

Synopsis

This threadsafe class implements the BlockingQueue interface based on a linked-list data structure. It orders elements on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. You may specify a maximum queue capacity, creating a bounded queue. The default capacity is Integer.MAX_VALUE, which is effectively unbounded. null elements are not permitted.
