Class

System.Collections.Queue (standard version)

System.Collections.Generic.Queue (generic version)

Syntax

     Dim result As Object = queueVariable.Peek(  ) 

Description

The Peek method returns the beginning item in the queue as an Object, but it does not remove it from the queue.

Usage at a Glance

The Peek method is similar to the Queue object's Dequeue method, except that it leaves the queue intact.

Version Differences

Visual Basic 2005 adds support for generics to queues, as discussed in Chapter 10.
