Stack类的push和add方法的区别？

//对于add方法
/*Appends the specified element to the end of this Vector.*/
public synchronized boolean add(E e) {
        modCount++;
        ensureCapacityHelper(elementCount + 1);
        elementData[elementCount++] = e;
        return true;
    }



//对于push方法
/*Pushes an item onto the top of this stack. This has exactly the same effect as:
       addElement(item)*/
public E push(E item) {
        addElement(item);

        return item;
    }

/*Adds the specified component to the end of this vector, increasing its size by one. */
public synchronized void addElement(E obj) {
        modCount++;
        ensureCapacityHelper(elementCount + 1);
        elementData[elementCount++] = obj;
    }

        通过stack类add方法和push方法源代码可知， add方法其实调用的是Vector类的add方法，返回的是一个boolean类型的值，而push方法则是Stack类在Vector类的addElement方法基础上进修了一些修改，返回当前添加的元素。
