Method Detail

get
public T 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 returnsnull
.- 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.This method is invoked only by Java code; when the garbage collector clears references it does so directly, without invoking this method.
-
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 returnfalse
.- 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.This method is invoked only by Java code; when the garbage collector enqueues references it does so directly, without invoking this method.
- 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
