public abstract class AbstractQueue<E> extends AbstractCollection<E> implements Queue<E>
Queue operations. The implementations in this class are appropriate when the base implementation does not allow null elements. Methods add, remove, and element are based on offer, poll, and peek, respectively, but throw exceptions instead of indicating failure via false or null returns. A Queue implementation that extends this class must minimally define a method Queue.offer(E) which does not permit insertion of null elements, along with methods Queue.peek(), Queue.poll(), Collection.size(), and Collection.iterator(). Typically, additional methods will be overridden as well. If these requirements cannot be met, consider instead subclassing AbstractCollection. 
This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

public boolean add(E e)
true upon success and throwing an IllegalStateException if no space is currently available. This implementation returns true if offer succeeds, else throws an IllegalStateException.

poll only in that it throws an exception if this queue is empty. This implementation returns the result of poll unless the queue is empty.
remove in interface Queue<E>
NoSuchElementException - if this queue is emptypublic E element()
peek only in that it throws an exception if this queue is empty. This implementation returns the result of peek unless the queue is empty.
element in interface Queue<E>
NoSuchElementException - if this queue is emptypublic void clear()
This implementation repeatedly invokes poll until it returns null.
clear in interface Collection<E>
clear in class AbstractCollection<E>
public boolean addAll(Collection<? extends E> c)
IllegalArgumentException. Further, the behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified collection is modified while the operation is in progress. This implementation iterates over the specified collection, and adds each element returned by the iterator to this queue, in turn. A runtime exception encountered while trying to add an element (including, in particular, a null element) may result in only some of the elements having been successfully added when the associated exception is thrown.
