LinkedBlockingDeque removeIf() method in Java with Examples

Last Updated : 26 Mar, 2019

The removeIf() method of LinkedBlockingDeque removes the element from this LinkedBlockingDeque that satisfies the specified condition. Syntax:

public boolean removeIf (Predicate<? super E> filter)

Parameters: This method accepts a mandatory parameter filter which is the predicate value based on which elements are removed from this Deque. Returns: This method returns a boolean value such as true, if the LinkedBlockingDeque is changed. Else this method returns false. Exceptions: This method throws NullPointerException if the specified Predicate filter is null. Below program illustrates the removeIf() function of LinkedBlockingDeque class : Program 1:

Java

// Java Program Demonstrate removeIf()
// method of LinkedBlockingDeque

import java.util.concurrent.LinkedBlockingDeque;
import java.util.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
        throws InterruptedException
    {

        // Create object of LinkedBlockingDeque
        LinkedBlockingDeque<Integer> LBD
            = new LinkedBlockingDeque<Integer>();

        // Add numbers to end of LinkedBlockingDeque
        LBD.add(7855642);
        LBD.add(35658786);
        LBD.add(5278367);
        LBD.add(74381793);

        // Print Deque
        System.out.println("Linked Blocking Deque: "
                           + LBD);

        // If a number in the List is
        // divisible by 3, then remove it
        LBD.removeIf(number -> number % 3 == 0);

        System.out.println("Linked Blocking Deque: "
                           + LBD);
    }
}

Output:

Linked Blocking Deque: [7855642, 35658786, 5278367, 74381793]
Linked Blocking Deque: [7855642, 5278367]

Program 2:

Java

// Java Program Demonstrate removeIf()
// method of LinkedBlockingDeque

import java.util.concurrent.LinkedBlockingDeque;
import java.util.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
        throws InterruptedException
    {

        // Create object of LinkedBlockingDeque
        LinkedBlockingDeque<Integer> LBD
            = new LinkedBlockingDeque<Integer>();

        // Add numbers to end of LinkedBlockingDeque
        LBD.add(7855642);
        LBD.add(35658786);
        LBD.add(5278367);
        LBD.add(74381793);

        // Print Dequeue
        System.out.println("Linked Blocking Deque: "
                           + LBD);

        try {
            // if the predicate is null,
            // then it will throw NullPointerException
            LBD.removeIf(null);
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e);
        }
    }
}

Output:

Linked Blocking Deque: [7855642, 35658786, 5278367, 74381793]
java.lang.NullPointerException
