interrupt

I have a class that takes objects from a BlockingQueue and processes them by calling take() in a continuous loop. At some point I know that no more objects will be added to the queue. How do I interrupt the take() method so that it stops blocking? Here's the class that processes the objects: public class MyObjHandler implements Runnable { private final BlockingQueue<MyObj> queue; public class MyObjHandler(BlockingQueue queue) { this.queue = queue; } public void run() { try { while (true) { MyObj obj = queue.take(); // process obj here // ... } } catch (InterruptedException e) { Thread

I want to know the difference between FIQ and IRQ interrupt system in any microprocessor, e.g: ARM926EJ. A feature of modern ARM CPUs (and some others). From the patent: A method of performing a fast interrupt in a digital data processor having the capability of handling more than one interrupt is provided. When a fast interrupt request is received a flag is set and the program counter and condition code registers are stored on a stack. At the end of the interrupt servicing routine the return from interrupt instructions retrieves the condition code register which contains the status of the
