Interface DBlockingQueue<E>

Type Parameters:
E - the type of elements in this queue
All Superinterfaces:
BlockingDeque<E>, BlockingQueue<E>, Collection<E>, Deque<E>, DType, Iterable<E>, Queue<E>
public interface DBlockingQueue<E> extends BlockingDeque<E>, DType
An implementation of a BlockingDeque that is distributed and highly available. Most operations are forwarded to the backend cluster where the actual data is maintained. Objects added to a queue need to be serializable either as Java Serializable or one of GemFire's serializable types such as DataSerializable.

Note that iteration methods will serialize the whole structure to the client and perform the iteration locally. Iterators do not support remove() and will throw an UnsupportedOperationException.

Note that methods that are interruptible can only be interrupted locally. There is no interrupt 'signal' that is passed to the server performing the actual operation.
