public class LinkedBlockingDeque<E> extends AbstractQueue<E> implements BlockingDeque<E>, Serializable
The optional capacity bound constructor argument serves as a way to prevent excessive expansion. The capacity, if unspecified, is equal to Integer.MAX_VALUE. Linked nodes are dynamically created upon each insertion unless this would bring the deque above capacity. 
Most operations run in constant time (ignoring time spent blocking). Exceptions include remove, removeFirstOccurrence, removeLastOccurrence, contains, iterator.remove(), and the bulk operations, all of which run in linear time. 
This class and its iterator implement all of the optional methods of the Collection and Iterator interfaces. 
This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

c - the elements to be inserted into this dequetrue if this deque changed as a result of the callNullPointerException - if the specified collection or any of its elements are nullIllegalArgumentException - if the collection is this dequeIllegalStateException - if this deque is fullpublic Object[] toArray()
The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are maintained by this deque. (In other words, this method must allocate a new array). The caller is thus free to modify the returned array.
This method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs.
toArray in interface Collection<E>
toArray in class AbstractCollection<E>
public <T> T[] toArray(T[] a)
If this deque fits in the specified array with room to spare (i.e., the array has more elements than this deque), the element in the array immediately following the end of the deque is set to null. 
Like the toArray() method, this method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs. Further, this method allows precise control over the runtime type of the output array, and may, under certain circumstances, be used to save allocation costs. 
Suppose x is a deque known to contain only strings. The following code can be used to dump the deque into a newly allocated array of String: 
 String[] y = x.toArray(new String[0]); Note that toArray(new Object[0]) is identical in function to toArray().toArray in interface Collection<E>

IterableIterable until all elements have been processed or the action throws an exception. Actions are performed in the order of iteration, if that order is specified. Exceptions thrown by the action are relayed to the caller. The behavior of this method is unspecified if the action performs side-effects that modify the underlying source of elements, unless an overriding class has specified a concurrent modification policy.
