Each of these methods exists in two forms: one throws + * an exception if the operation fails, the other returns a special + * value (either null or false, depending on the + * operation). The latter form of the insert operation is designed + * specifically for use with capacity-restricted Queue + * implementations; in most implementations, insert operations cannot + * fail. + * + *
+ *
+ * | Throws exception | + *Returns special value | + *
Insert | + *{@link #add add(e)} | + *{@link #offer offer(e)} | + *
Remove | + *{@link #remove remove()} | + *{@link #poll poll()} | + *

Queues typically, but do not necessarily, order elements in a + * FIFO (first-in-first-out) manner. Among the exceptions are + * priority queues, which order elements according to a supplied + * comparator, or the elements' natural ordering, and LIFO queues (or + * stacks) which order the elements LIFO (last-in-first-out). + * Whatever the ordering used, the head of the queue is that + * element which would be removed by a call to {@link #remove() } or + * {@link #poll()}. In a FIFO queue, all new elements are inserted at + * the tail of the queue. Other kinds of queues may use + * different placement rules. Every Queue implementation + * must specify its ordering properties. + * + *
The {@link #offer offer} method inserts an element if possible, + * otherwise returning false. This differs from the {@link + * java.util.Collection#add Collection.add} method, which can fail to + * add an element only by throwing an unchecked exception. The + * offer method is designed for use when failure is a normal, + * rather than exceptional occurrence, for example, in fixed-capacity + * (or "bounded") queues. + * + *
The {@link #remove()} and {@link #poll()} methods remove and + * return the head of the queue. + * Exactly which element is removed from the queue is a + * function of the queue's ordering policy, which differs from + * implementation to implementation. The remove() and + * poll() methods differ only in their behavior when the + * queue is empty: the remove() method throws an exception, + * while the poll() method returns null. + * + *
The {@link #element()} and {@link #peek()} methods return, but do + * not remove, the head of the queue. + * + *
The Queue interface does not define the blocking queue + * methods, which are common in concurrent programming. These methods, + * which wait for elements to appear or for space to become available, are + * defined in the {@link java.util.concurrent.BlockingQueue} interface, which + * extends this interface. + * + *
Queue implementations generally do not allow insertion + * of null elements, although some implementations, such as + * {@link LinkedList}, do not prohibit insertion of null. + * Even in the implementations that permit it, null should + * not be inserted into a Queue, as null is also + * used as a special return value by the poll method to + * indicate that the queue contains no elements. + * + *
Queue implementations generally do not define + * element-based versions of methods equals and + * hashCode but instead inherit the identity based versions + * from class Object, because element-based equality is not + * always well-defined for queues with the same elements but different + * ordering properties. + * + * + *
