E - the type of elements held in this collectionpublic class ArrayBlockingDroppingQueue<E> extends AbstractQueue<E> implements BlockingDroppingQueue<E>, Serializable
Elements in the queue are ordered as FIFO (first-in-first-out). The head of the queue is that element that has been on the queue the longest time. The tail of the queue is that element that has been on the queue the shortest time. New elements are inserted at the tail of the queue, and the queue retrieval operations obtain elements at the head of the queue.
This is a classic "ring buffer", in which a fixed-sized array holds elements inserted by producers and extracted by consumers. Once created, the capacity cannot be increased. Attempts to put an element into a full queue will result in the oldest item being removed to make room; attempts to take an element from an empty queue will block.
This class supports an optional fairness policy for ordering waiting producer and consumer threads. By default, this ordering is not guaranteed. However, a queue constructed with fairness set to true grants threads access in FIFO order. Fairness generally decreases throughput but reduces variability and avoids starvation.
 This class and its iterator implement all of the optional methods of
 the Collection and Iterator interfaces.

                          Collection<? extends E> c)Creates an ArrayBlockingDroppingQueue with the given (fixed)
 capacity, the specified access policy and initially containing the
 elements of the given collection, added in traversal order of the
 collection's iterator. | 
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description | 
|---|---|
| boolean | add(E e)Inserts the specified element at the tail of this queue if it is possible
 to do so immediately without exceeding the queue's capacity, returning
 true upon success and throwing an IllegalStateException
 if this queue is full. | 
| void | clear()Atomically removes all of the elements from this queue. | 
| boolean | contains(Object o)Returns true if this queue contains the specified element. | 
| int | drainTo(Collection<? super E> c)Removes all available elements from this queue and adds them to the given
 collection. | 
| int | drainTo(Collection<? super E> c,
       int maxElements)Removes at most the given number of available elements from this queue
 and adds them to the given collection. | 
| long | dropCount()Returns the total number of items that have been dropped by this
  BlockingDroppingQueueto make space for new elements within its
 lifetime. | 
| long | insertCount()Returns the total number of items that have been inserted into this
  BlockingDroppingQueuewithin its lifetime. | 
| Iterator<E> | iterator()Returns an iterator over the elements in this queue in proper sequence. | 
| boolean | offer(E e)Inserts the specified element into this queue if it is possible to do so
 immediately without violating capacity restrictions, returning
 true upon success and false if no space is currently
 available. | 
| E | peek() | 
| E | poll() | 
| E | poll(long timeout,
    TimeUnit unit)Retrieves and removes the head of this queue, waiting up to the specified
 wait time if necessary for an element to become available. | 
| E | put(E e)Inserts the specified element into this queue, dropping the oldest
 element to make space if necessary. | 
| int | remainingCapacity()Returns the number of additional elements that this queue can ideally (in
 the absence of memory or resource constraints) accept without blocking. | 
| boolean | remove(Object o)Removes a single instance of the specified element from this queue, if it
 is present. | 
| int | size()Returns the number of elements in this queue. | 
| E | take()Retrieves and removes the head of this queue, waiting if necessary until
 an element becomes available. | 
| Object[] | toArray()Returns an array containing all of the elements in this queue, in proper
 sequence. | 
| <T> T[] | toArray(T[] a)Returns an array containing all of the elements in this queue, in proper
 sequence; the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified
 array. |

Note that you cannot always tell if an attempt to insert an element will succeed by inspecting remainingCapacity because it may be the case that another thread is about to insert or remove an element.

The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are maintained by this queue. (In other words, this method must allocate a new array). The caller is thus free to modify the returned array.
This method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs.
toArray in interface Collection<E>toArray in class AbstractCollection<E>public <T> T[] toArray(T[] a)
If this queue fits in the specified array with room to spare (i.e., the array has more elements than this queue), the element in the array immediately following the end of the queue is set to null.
 Like the toArray() method, this method acts as bridge between
 array-based and collection-based APIs. Further, this method allows
 precise control over the runtime type of the output array, and may, under
 certain circumstances, be used to save allocation costs.
 
Suppose x is a queue known to contain only strings. The following code can be used to dump the queue into a newly allocated array of String:
String[] y = x.toArray(new String[0]);Note that toArray(new Object[0]) is identical in function to toArray().
