Interface QueueProgressIndicators

All Known Implementing Classes:
SpscUnboundedArrayQueue

public interface QueueProgressIndicators
This interface is provided for monitoring purposes only and is only available on queues where it is easy to provide it. The producer/consumer progress indicators usually correspond with the number of elements offered/polled, but they are not guaranteed to maintain that semantic.

  • Method Details

    • currentProducerIndex

      long currentProducerIndex()
      This method has no concurrent visibility semantics. The value returned may be negative. Under normal circumstances 2 consecutive calls to this method can offer an idea of progress made by producer threads by subtracting the 2 results though in extreme cases (if producers have progressed by more than 2^64) this may also fail.
      This value will normally indicate number of elements passed into the queue, but may under some circumstances be a derivative of that figure. This method should not be used to derive size or emptiness.
      Returns:
      the current value of the producer progress index
    • currentConsumerIndex

      long currentConsumerIndex()
      This method has no concurrent visibility semantics. The value returned may be negative. Under normal circumstances 2 consecutive calls to this method can offer an idea of progress made by consumer threads by subtracting the 2 results though in extreme cases (if consumers have progressed by more than 2^64) this may also fail.
      This value will normally indicate number of elements taken out of the queue, but may under some circumstances be a derivative of that figure. This method should not be used to derive size or emptiness.
      Returns:
      the current value of the consumer progress index
