Class BoundedFifoBuffer

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Iterable, Collection, BoundedCollection, Buffer
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    CircularFifoBuffer

    public class BoundedFifoBuffer
    extends AbstractCollection
    implements Buffer, BoundedCollection, Serializable
    The BoundedFifoBuffer is a very efficient implementation of Buffer that is of a fixed size.

    The removal order of a BoundedFifoBuffer is based on the insertion order; elements are removed in the same order in which they were added. The iteration order is the same as the removal order.

    The add(Object), remove() and get() operations all perform in constant time. All other operations perform in linear time or worse.

    Note that this implementation is not synchronized. The following can be used to provide synchronized access to your BoundedFifoBuffer:

       Buffer fifo = BufferUtils.synchronizedBuffer(new BoundedFifoBuffer());
     

    This buffer prevents null objects from being added.

    This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

      • BoundedFifoBuffer

        public BoundedFifoBuffer()
        Constructs a new BoundedFifoBuffer big enough to hold 32 elements.
      • BoundedFifoBuffer

        public BoundedFifoBuffer​(int size)
        Constructs a new BoundedFifoBuffer big enough to hold the specified number of elements.
        Parameters:
        size - the maximum number of elements for this fifo
        Throws:

      • BoundedFifoBuffer

        public BoundedFifoBuffer​(Collection coll)
        Constructs a new BoundedFifoBuffer big enough to hold all of the elements in the specified collection. That collection's elements will also be added to the buffer.
        Parameters:
        coll - the collection whose elements to add, may not be null
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the collection is null
