BlockingDeque pollLast() method in Java with examples

Last Updated : 12 Jul, 2025

The

pollLast()

method of

BlockingDeque

returns the last element in the Deque container, and deletes it. It returns

null

if the container is empty.

Syntax:

public E pollLast()

Parameters:

This method does not accept any parameters.

Returns:

This method returns

last element

in the Deque container if the container is not empty and deletes the element also. It returns

null

if the container is empty.

Note

: The pollLast() method of

BlockingDeque

has been inherited from the

LinkedBlockingDeque

class in Java. Below programs illustrate pollLast() method of BlockingDeque:

Program 1: Java


 // Java Program Demonstrate pollLast()
// method of BlockingDeque

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

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

    {

        // create object of BlockingDeque
        BlockingDeque<Integer> BD
            = new LinkedBlockingDeque<Integer>();

        // Add numbers to end of BlockingDeque
        BD.addFirst(7855642);
        BD.addFirst(35658786);
        BD.addFirst(5278367);
        BD.addFirst(74381793);

        // Print the queue
        System.out.println("Blocking Deque: " + BD);

        // prints and deletes the last element
        System.out.println("Front element in Deque: " + BD.pollLast());

        // prints the Deque after deletion of last element
        System.out.println("Blocking Deque: " + BD);
    }
}

Output:

Blocking Deque: [74381793, 5278367, 35658786, 7855642]
Front element in Deque: 7855642
Blocking Deque: [74381793, 5278367, 35658786]

Program 2: Java


 // Java Program Demonstrate pollLast()
// method of BlockingDeque
// when Deque is empty

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

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

    {

        // create object of BlockingDeque
        BlockingDeque<Integer> BD
            = new LinkedBlockingDeque<Integer>();

        // Add numbers to end of BlockingDeque
        BD.add(7855642);
        BD.add(35658786);
        BD.add(5278367);
        BD.add(74381793);

        // Print the queue
        System.out.println("Blocking Deque: " + BD);

        // empty deque
        BD.clear();

        System.out.println("Front element in Deque: " + BD.pollLast());
    }
}

Output:

Blocking Deque: [7855642, 35658786, 5278367, 74381793]
Front element in Deque: null
