Method Detail

get

public Object get()
Returns this reference object's referent. If this reference object has been cleared, either by the program or by the garbage collector, then this method returns null.

Returns:
The object to which this reference refers, or null if this reference object has been cleared

clear

public void clear()
Clears this reference object. Invoking this method will not cause this object to be enqueued.


isEnqueued

public boolean isEnqueued()
Tells whether or not this reference object has been enqueued, either by the program or by the garbage collector. If this reference object was not registered with a queue when it was created, then this method will always return false.

Returns:
true if and only if this reference object has been enqueued

enqueue

public boolean enqueue()
Adds this reference object to the queue with which it is registered, if any.

Returns:
true if this reference object was successfully enqueued; false if it was already enqueued or if it was not registered with a queue when it was created
