ConcurrentQueue<T>.IsEmpty Property

Definition

Namespace:

System.Collections.Concurrent

Assembly:

System.Collections.Concurrent.dll

Source:

ConcurrentQueue.cs

Gets a value that indicates whether the ConcurrentQueue<T> is empty.

public:
 property bool IsEmpty { bool get(); };

public bool IsEmpty { get; }

member this.IsEmpty : bool

Public ReadOnly Property IsEmpty As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

true if the ConcurrentQueue<T> is empty; otherwise, false.

Remarks

For determining whether the collection contains any items, use of this property is recommended rather than retrieving the number of items from the Count property and comparing it to 0. However, as this collection is intended to be accessed concurrently, it may be the case that another thread will modify the collection after IsEmpty returns, thus invalidating the result.
